Dell computers is in Austin, and there is a retail chain there that collects thousands of old Dell Computers from corporations and resells them. I’ve purchased several computers there personally when I lived in Austin and they are great. For example, the $29 desktop I am typing on now! My question is, does DFW have anything similar?

Server store is not cheap. It can make sense in a business context. Other than that, they are expensive.
Try computer works.

Still not as cheap as computer works in Austin, or the place mentioned in the OP. I’m hoping someone replies with a less expensive place in DFW.
The Micro Center sells referbished Dell computers complete with a new Windows installation for $99 or so.

Thanks fellow DMSpacers I will check these out. While I am at it, can anyone recommend a not-expensive graphics card for an old Dell Optiplex 760? Mucho gracias!
I always get an AMD passively cooled card off eBay. Just works under Linux.
I have an ancient Dell Precision 390 running Linux with 4 memory slots and 4Gb of memory currently.
I can upgrade to 8Gb if I can find 4 memory cards each 2 Gb DDR2 SDRAM ECC or non-ECC 533/677 MHz.
Anybody have any?
