My clients, I buy Lenovo M93p Minis
i5
8GB RAM
240 or 500GB SSD hard drive
Windows 7 or 10
small, no dvd drive, they don’t use them anyways
simple ac adapter power supply
VGA and Display port video
fine for my customers
They love em
especially the small foot print
Price under $500
The most I’d pay for a PC with Win 7/8/10 is $250. Just recently picked up a Dell 960 Optiplex, Win 7 Pro, 3GB processor, 4 gigs ram, DVD&BluRay, 360G HD on EBay for 60 bucks - included shipping & a mouse & keyboard. Works just dandy, but I might spend 30 bucks to put in 4 more GB of RAM.
