no frills can be obtained through any major manufacturer - dell,hp, comaq. I tend to avoid emachines because they use outdated technology which is why it is cheap. also, you can order bare-bones pc parts (incl mb/cpu/mem/case) and just plug in the HD & DVD/CD from your old pc and get the OS which allows for you to "learn" how everything comes together at the same time as saving since you're not having to purchase everything from scratch, the hd & cdrom technology hasn't chngd that much. for addl info you can visit www.pricewatch.com or www.newegg.com www.dell.com etc...

Dell is a good choice for no-frill desktop pc. Don't buy a used computer which you could end up paying more in repairs, labors and replacement parts.

your local pawn shop will most likely have what you need. they should run pretty cheap and you can have it then with no wait and check it over yourself to make sure it has only the thrills you don't want. lol good luck

Look on www.govconnection.com for computers and sort by price. Use the tool on the left to choose your system requirements.
E-machines are like bottom feeder computers. When they break it is very difficult ot find parts for them.

emachines is a basic model. at some places they won't sell you an emachine w/o a monitor though (like at walmart - it's always bundled) but i have seen them w/o monitors at circuit city.
