Help finding a computer fit for my husband (don't judge)?

my husbands computer just fried the mother board and power supply and I'm not sure if it's worth even fixing it. I have a laptop and don't let him use it cause the SOLE purpose of his computer is for him to look at porn and youtube or to listen to music. I don't want him to get a virus on my laptop because it is where i save my files, pics ect.

So to my question...what computer should i get him? should i try to get his fixed or get him his own? what processer ect. I don't want anything over $400 thanks for your help.

Update:

It doesn't bother me that he does it I just don't want him to ruin a computer that has important stuff on it. and he makes the money so he would be buying it not me.

    I WOULD LOOK AROUND FOR A USED COMPUTER AT A GARAGE SALE. or: Check around at different stores in your town for a cheap one.

    But I would let your husband have his own computer! I would also make him buy it himself; especially if he likes to ruin computers with all that SPAM stuff.

    But please tell him nicely for the sake of your marriage. Ok?

    GOOD LUCK!
