I just ordered a PC for my parents (they are still using an I-Opener
for internet access, Earthlink won't suport them forever...), a Dell
Celeron 2 GHz box for $499 (not a great deal, but it included a 15" LCD
display) - upgrade the warranty (they ARE in FL, and I am not), and
bump up the display to a Dell FP1800 for another $150... Apply the
magic coupon, and it is down to just about $600. (and of course, free
shipping, free Palm Zire ;^)

Which is what the Flat Panel display sells for normally...

They are getting affordable. ;^)
