I looked them up and I agree that a Chromebox would fit the bill without paying for a laptop screen and keyboard that you would not use. They are priced between $200 and $300. You can also buy a refurbished Windows 7 tower for less than $100 on Amazon that would have a better processor and more features than the Chromebox. So, I guess it really depends on whether you want to switch to the Chrome system or stay with Windows.
