What is the best place to find the cheapest possible desktop computers? I do *not* want to build it myself. I also need a moniter.

HP or Dell are usually the cheapest from what I've seen.

A guy was telling me you could get some pretty good prices on Ebay that looked like some machines with good parts.

When browsing some deal sites, saw the Dell Vostro 200 2GB Desktop is on sale for only $375, you can give it a look

Don't buy from eBay if you want it to ls any amount of time. ۩

False alarm, my laptop came back to life after some reformatting :D

Provided you do this, I recommend buying a new harddrive. I would not trust anyone on eBay with electronic storage devices, regardless of selling history.

yay for you though

Ebay prices have always seemed over inflated to me for electronics- I've seen 256 mb Ram, pentium 3 computers sell for more then the dell computer mentioned above.

The Shuttle KPC is insanely cheap
