Build your own. Assuming you already have an O/S all you will need is:

M.B.-$150 for a good Asus board (DDR or SDRAM support)
CPU -$190 for a 1.33ghz thunderbird
Case w/pwr supply- $50-60
40g H.D.-$140
256m Ram-$80 for SDRAM @CAS2 or DDR for $100-120
Floppy-$15
Geforce3-$350-400
SBlive Gamer-$100
19" Monitor-$250
4 Speakers w/sub-$100-150
DVD-$100
CD R/RW-$170-220
Keyboard & Mouse-$25
Case Fans/CPU Fan-$35-40
Shop at pricewatch and total will equal $1755-1960 +/- $100
And as a added bonus, the cpu will overclock to 1466mhz eazy
Goodluck,
JR
