Basic (non-gaming) Desktop Deals? (BF or otherwise)

[aktick]

Looking for a cheap, basic desktop, that will just be used for internet, Word, etc. Will use XP.

I'm not waiting in line on Black Friday...are there any good online deals tomorrow or Friday that I could try to get in on?

Otherwise any good 3 day type deals that would be easier to get?

Thanks.

Scroll all the way down there's a lot of computers there and the Celerons are especially cheap. Lower priced ones also come in and out of stock all the time too, I got my current computer (2.0ghz Celeron, 512MB Ram) for $114 shipped from there.

Also if the item doesn't say "Geek Special" or "Sale Special" you can get 10% off with coupon code "GOTTADEAL".
