[olug] Anybody buy a $40 Linux PC from these guys?

[Ben Watson]

Another option are these guys: http://www.2nd-byte.com/Home.aspx

I've done business with them in the past and am still running a couple of
the HP machines I purchased a couple years ago.  Prices are reasonable and
they come with OEM Windows 7 Pro pre-loaded.  If you ask, they'll give you
an OEM disc to re-load Windows later if you want to wipe it and run Linux
instead.
