That's exactly what I'm doing. Without the monitor it's $400.The thing is, computers are lasting longer and longer, and the power they have outstrips the base software more and more.
A good Pentium 2, when Pentium 2's were new, still sucked. The best CPU on the market still took forever to load windows, and run programs, and browse the internet.
Nowadays, the weakest, cheapest, crappiest CPU will run basic needs (word processing, email, internet) probably indefinitely, until the system physically dies. If you're trying to save money, just go with the cheapest.
Heck, instead of buying a $600 system now, just buy a $300-400 system every 3-4 years.
Btw, thanks for the help guys.
