Looking for 486 boxes inthe Washington DC area

I'm looking for an inexpensive 486 MSDOS box.  Looks like they're
coming down in price a lot.  I saw some pretty good looking systems at
MicroCenter and Comp USA for around $800-$900.  They may not be GREAT
boxes, but they're cheap and that's important.  Can anyone recommend a
vendor in the Washington DC/Maryland/Virignina area that carries these
boxes?  I don't need anything too fancy.  Multimedia isn't important
although compatibility with 16-bit audio cards and midi is a big plus.
Looking for reliability, warrenty and price.

  What are MicroCenter and CompUSA -- chicken liver??
 
Okay, they may not be in "Virignina", but neither is anyone else!!
