Go to the Dell outlet store. Saw a Dimension with double layer DVD burner,
512MB RAM, 80 GB harddrive, upgraded warranty to 3 Years on-site and $24
next day shipping for less than $500. You might need to add a network card,
but most motherboards have them built in. Only 20 or 30 bucks for a good
one at Best Buy or Circuit City.
