Need new computer

I'm giving the one I use to my grandpa to use, so I'm in need of a new computer.
What is a good pre-built computer for everyday use?
Watching movies, streaming sports, maplestory, download music, and doing homework.

Limit: 600$ without tax. Don't need monitor.

Thanks for your time and responses.

Yup. Also, consider an upgrade in graphics cards if you want one of those 4 because I just noticed they had Intel..

If you want a laptop that's meant for typical everyday usage without doing anything intensive (in terms of hardware) I would suggest a Toshiba Satellite C655. its $456 on newegg xD.
