Old machine getting a bit long in the tooth, hence looking for something reasonably priced for the Parents - just email, bit of browsing / few excel sheets. Not having bought a PC for a while, is the below ok for light usage?

Personally I prefer the look of the smaller form factor machines, but that only comes with a celeron dual core, and I'd prefer something a little more future proof.

Anyone have either machine?

A route I had considered, however the vagueness of rural broadband makes it a little dubious - lots of photo's and stuff to back up, and would prefer local storage.
