I was like wow why is the A64 machine more than the Sempron, then I saw it was a refurb.

Either one will handle what you need to do just fine. So I would say the sempron since it has the 1 year warranty.

It wont hold up against any games that are recent thos with a x200 integrated vid card and only 512mb ram.
