I ordered one this morning, posted this afternoon and of course, 15 minutes after my post it's out of stock. Sorry.
Did a quick search and didn't find anything on this yet:
Compgeeks special, looks like an EMachine.
specs:
Athlon 700Mhz (Slot A) CPU
MSI MS-6191 micro-ATX Motherboard (I believe it is this motherboard)
-One AGP (used)
-Three PCI (one used)
-Onboard Sound
-2 Dimm slots (both used)
128MB PC100 RAM (2 64MB Dimms)
30GB IDE Hard Drive
nVidia 8MB TNT2 Video Card
8x DVD Drive with Software Decode
56k Modem
Keyboard/Mouse/Speakers
No Operating System
Obviously a Socket Athlon would be better, as would the RAM being a single stick, but you can't be too greedy I guess. While it's not a killer system, definately worthwhile as a second computer or for the grandparents. This was posted back a while on Ben's Bargains, but was sold out and seems to be back in stock. I ordered one using the 10% code that's floating around and with the $20 in shipping, it came to a total of $261.10
