Can someone suggest where I can buy a low powered inexpensive system (using it to learn Linux)

I'll be in the process of learning Linux over the next few days and I need a fairly cheap machine that I can use to practice installing Linux on. I would like to keep the cost under 200-250, a monitor is not really neccessary so that does'nt need to be factored in.

At the minimum I would like to have a 400mhz cpu, with 64mb and CD-Rom and the hard drive size does'nt really matter.

You should go look in the hot deals forum, they usually have a burbie PC in there for a little over $100.

Here's a hot deal. Configure a PowerEdge 500SC Server and simply downgrade to a 1-year warranty. Your total is then $499 - $250 rebate = $249 plus free shipping! Here are the specs of this sytem:


Celeron 1.1GHz, 128MB SDRAM, 48x CD-ROM, 20GB 7.2K Drive, 10/100 LAN

Keyboard/Mouse, No software at all (no OS)

You just slap in your favorite flavor of Linux.
