Need a desktop PC for Mame

[ssjenkins]

Hi All,

 Sorry but I need some advice . I've spent 3 days trying to find a used PC and I keep running into brick walls . All I'm looking for is the following :

1) Must be a desktop , not a tower .
2) 700Mhz+ processor
3) It must have a slot for a VGA card (ArcadeVGA) .

 The rest , memory etc.. is unimportant . I'm not looking to buy on the forum it's just a question to see if anyone knows any models that fit this description . I can then try and hunt one down on Ebay . So far I've been looking at Dell's and Compaq's but they all seem to have onboard video which doesn't suit me . Any advice would (as usual) be greatly appreciated .

Take a second look some of those with onboard video as they may also have an AGP slot.

How much are you looking to spend?

Hi elpresidente .
 I bought a Dell Optiplex GX110 last week which I had to send back . I think the GX150 is the same . Over the last couple of days I thought I'd found one in the Compaq "Deskpro EN" but I've just been told that that also has no AGP slot so I'm back at square 1 . I'm in Spain and I was looking to spend around 150 Euros ($200US) .

Just found and bought an IBM Netvista . It's a bit faster and more expensive (as usual) than I needed but what the hell . You only live once !

 Anyway , case closed . More to follow on my other thread once I get the sucker up and running .
