I got a great deal from one computer shop though...around $1000 I can go for AMD XP 1800+ CPU with all-in-one motherboard (Onboard Graphics and Sound), 512MB DDR RAM, CD-RW and DVD-ROM (Separate), 40GB Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM (2MB FSB), Win XP Pro with MS Office XP Pro (CD included), ATX case with 350W Power Supply, with typical FDD. Nothing to complain really...just that I have no job right now and job search may take a while...
that deal does sound pretty good considering the software included is worth quite a bit, but an all in one motherboard will run games very poorly (unless it is an nforce 2, but for that price i doubt that very much)

but i just bought myself some bits, $200 for a xp 1800+, a board with raid, and 256 mb of ram. Going to switch over tomorrow [img]smile.gif[/img]
