Cost--As cheap as possible, under $750 if possible

Function--word processing, email, internet wireless connection, music for his Creative Zen Micro. Minimal to no gaming

USB ports for his printer, etc.

Comfortable keyboard.

Lightweight is preferable.

Suggestions please.

Chain it to his wrist.

If you find that too impractical, tell him that if loses it, the next computer he gets will be bought with his own money and that he will have to pay off the money you paid for the computer. If he manages to lose it anyway, follow through with your promise.... at least for a year or two. When you finally break down and get him another one (in a year or two) I guarantee you he will guard it with his life. Oh and don't foget to give him a big speech about how irresponsible he is and all that other stuff that parents do.
