So for about the past week I've been combing ebay and craigslist. There was one ebay post of 4 computers, all the same specs. Honestly it's a deal at $35+$15 shipping.. Core i5 750 (2.66ghz cpu, 4 cores, 4 threads), 4gb ram, 250gb hard drive, windows 7, geforce 310 (not awesome, but plenty for open GL), and if at some point I decide to add 3d unity graphics or I want to run dual screen it does have an open slot for a nicer video card. Even though it's a 10 year old computer, it's still very decent. I mean even if you were to piece together parts it would add up quick. Probably going to upgrade to 8gb ram and a solid state hard drive since that's what mission pinball recommends as an ideal machine for development. My home computer has a 120gb SSD drive that seems to float between 1-5gb of space left, so my goal is to buy a 240gb SSD, upgrade my home machine (re-install everything), then pop the 120gb drive into the pinball computer. 120gb should be PLENTY for windows plus framework plus yaml.
