I sold my gaming rig last night and I'm looking to put together a cheap but fast little email/web browsing machine because my laptop is about to shit the bed or be beaten to death.

get a chromebox for $180. wireless keyboard + mousepad dont cost too much either. this may work if you are able to view your email via web browser.

Solid build though, basically the exact same thing I came up with.
