Last week I saw a 19" widescreen Acer LCD @ BestBuy for $130. Check your local Dutch auction flyers.

So for both, that's less than $600. You a short time ago have to look around.

If you want you could build a better computer for smaller quantity than a pre manufactured one.

maybe you should consider a pictographic card with a memory of 512 mb.
D.I.Y for the win...
Seek insist on from a friend or shop. I am not sure about your location, but contained by Singapore, We can just choose the parts and can ask the shop to do the assembly for only just S$15-$30. In this way I don't own to worry going on for dropping the chip accidentally and breaking it during assembly.
Good brands are usually expensive.
You would have to more and go and get less next to mass produced computer.
Dell.com.
I got a custom computer built from carbonfrost systems for 675 plus shipping for my son. Its extremely good. Fast and powerful. It have good video card and he plays profoundly of beefy games.

Contact them at support@carbonfrost.com (i think thats the email. you can move about to their website to be sure). But yeah, they are very worthy at giving you the most bang for you buck while using the best parts.
