[ale] best source for inexpensive used systems?

[arxaaron]

As noted before, Stargate Computers near Emory at North Decatur
and Clairmont is a good source for parts (with warranty!) and used
systems and the owner is fairly Linux friendly.

I was in there the other day and saw he had a couple short stacks
of Dell P4's desktops with decent memory and disk space on them
for ~$150.

Mafia$oft Xcrement Pile all over them, but you can easily wash
that stink off with fdisk. :-)
