My budget is $300 max, and preferably less.
I know I will not get high performance on such a budget. I am doing this more for the fun of it and the learning experience. Eventually I may turn it into a Linux box.
I just want to know what to expect and what the limitations are. Would I be better off ditching the onboard video and getting a cheap graphics card? My understanding is the onboard shares buss and memory and the external card does not, but for basic streaming and maybe a TV card it may be overkill.
