Really really cheap. All I need it to have is a CD drive, a 20 gb hd, 256 ram, PIII equivelent or greater. Other than that, just cheap. Anyone know where I can get on, other than ebay?
I need a really really cheap comp.

Or, if you're looking for something new... Dell... they have desktops starting at $299.
If you have a Fry's near you, you can get a basic PC for $199.
Looking for something closer to the Fry's PC, I failed to mention I wanted newish, and don't really want to buy from a person. Also, I have no heat yet, and I'd rather not have to ship it.
Unfortunatly the nearest Frys is 3 hours away, any other ideas?

Given your list of conditions, www.pcsurplusonline.com has a few off-lease desktops from $115 and laptops from $210 (both without OS).
I'd probably make the drive or get the Dell system instead though.

I got one for $99. PIII 933, 256RAM, 20GB HDD. CDROM, network card. It's a Dell something. USB1.1 Second bay for other parts.
W2K with license. It's actually my company that's selling them. So figure 6 bucks for tax. If I ship you at the cheapest insured shipping it'll be roughly $15.
It even comes with a warranty.

I've bought a few things from isellsurplus and haven't had any problems, can't argue with the number of negative responses though.
That's the problem with buying cheap merchandise. Most of the time the sellers are cheap too.
