[Hidden-tech] Friend in need of computer

[Jan Werner]

I'd suggest looking at IBM's used equipment site: 
http://refurbishedpcs.financing.ibm.com/

You can get a fully functional Pentium 4 desktop from them these days 
for about $200, including Windows XP Pro, free shipping and a 
no-questions-asked money-back guarantee.

The computers I use every day were all purchased from them and they have 
been rock solid. IBM/Lenovo also provides excellent resources online for 
do-it-yourself support (documentation, updated drivers, etc.).
