need an entry level PC to replace my teenager's aging PC. doesn't need to be a heavy duty cruncher so AMD or Celeron is ok. it's gonna be a glorified word processor / web surfer for schoolwork. the price range i am finding is around $600 and this includes:

-2.4GHZ Celeron
-256MB Ram
-40Gb HD
-17 monitor
-DVD/CDRW combo
-10/100Mbit ethernet
-56k modem

these are from the usual suspects at gateway/dell/hp. gateway is a straight deal, no rebates - the others all play the rebate game anyone know where there's a better deal?
