$200 isn't bad for a complete box. Don't know if you know how to build a
computer or not. But if you have some spare hard drives and a case you can get
a xp2000+mobo for less then $130 and then get some 512MB ddr ram for 70$. There
you go, I know it is a little more work, I don't mind. Just my thoughts.
