Go to the computer fair. You'll find whole computers there fairly often. I bought a DEC Venturis at the fair for $125: 75 MHz i586 with 24 Mb of RAM, a 400 Mb hard drive, and an S3 Virge video card. I was lucky though, I had a monitor that suits it. Even better, print out a copy of the Hardware HOWTO and take it to the fair as a buying guide. Buy parts. Build your own. You can download the Hardware HOWTO and heaps of other documnetation from the Linux Documentation Project's Australian mirror at http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/LDP/ Good luck. -- Ned ++++++ Democracy means "the people rule". To reply, cut out my nose and make the met a net.

I also saw a joblot of 10 ex call centre 686 133 with 1.2g/16mb ram no sound 14inch monitors go for $600 (network cards removed) -- :) ______________________________________________________ "He would be out of his depth in a carpark puddle..."
