I'd recommend them too, but while you are there, if the systems are too fast 
(i.e. expensive for your usage) you can go around the corner.  On the south 
side of College St. east of Spadina is a shop that sells used computer books 
and used hardware.  I forget it's name, but you can't miss it.  Last time I 
walked in there it had real cheap PII boards (around $10 or so) and cpus. 
Cheers
