Hello !!

 FM> Well, some shops including ours resell PCs much cheaper than current
 FM> models. For instance, an old 386 (only peripherals included are video,
 FM> multi/IO and hard disk) costs about 40 US$. You should probably find
 FM> the same prices or lower in the US.

I have a half dozen 386DX40's with 8 meg running FreeBSD.. They work great..
