From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

That's a lot of money for what you're getting there. I highly recommend used 1L office PCs, like the Lenovo ThinkCentre tiny machines. They're regularly under $100 USD on eBay. Although if you prefer something new that's totally understandable.
My mother in law wanted to change her insanely old pc (for email and, not much more).
She wanted a cheap but new one (IMO a terrible idea) but I just got her a used thinkcentre tiny for 100€.
For anyone looking for a basic PC have a look at off lease PC's.
Most of the PC's will be business class PC so even if they are several years old they still have several years more life left in them.
