150-200 bucks maybe or less.. cause first its most likely used and you could build one yourself for not much more.. with a faster processor even.

I agree with Tricky, but I just realized I live in spare parts heaven, used computers here are a commodity subject to an even worse price warfare than retail. I wouldn't go over $150, but where you are in the world matters a lot. I once got into a snit with a poster in Holland who just wouldn't believe I could get 3Com 905 PCI NICs for $5.

Luck,

Finegan
