You can find old computers a lot of the time on ebay.  I bought two nice and
old IBM Value Point 166 systems which I use for firewall services and a as a
regular house file and print server. IT also does wireless for me quite
well.  My total cost for the first one was 55.00 or so.  The second one I
got for about 60.  They work great with debian linux.
