[QUOTE="soloudinhere, post: 446225, member: 34674"] I have a PC laptop that I got in 2001 and while I want to beat it because it's slow (processor is 1.2GHz, but it can only take a max of 512mb ram) I also dropped it down a flight of stairs last week and it works fine. Is it ancient, yes, but it still works and it's cranking away running XP SP2 just fine right as I type. PCs can last plenty long. You just have to spend more outright to get the good ones. I hate to say this, because I love my mac, but since you're operating on a budget I really think you could save more time and money by buying small business machines (I personally LOVE HP for this. I have had two of their small business lappys and the things are TANKS in terms of build quality) and they come with 3 year warranties standard. especially since you're buying desktops, you can get a LOT more longevity out of a new small business desktop than you can out of the undeniably aging mac mini.
