Just buy a cheap PC. If you have any tech=nical savvy keep an eye out for closeouts from some of the big chain stores - sometimes yuo can snag some serious bargains. For example - my Realflight/gaming machine is a Compaq (are they HPaq now?) Presario 5888. 700 mHz Athlon, 128MB RAM, 27GB HD, DVD & CD-RW. I picked up two of them from a computer retailer back in Utah as 'returned' items for $150 a throw. (They retailed for just under $2K!) Gave one to my brother as a (belated) college present and kept the other one. Swapped out the POS Voodoo3 video card and she runs RFG2 smooth as can be. Bwahahahahaha.

(How? Q distributors had a policy whereby they did not accept returns of any Q consumer-class gear after 30 days for any reason. Once the machines are in the dealer's hands they are stuck with them. Apparently the manager of that particular computer store never learned the axiom "your first loss is your best loss" as they had about ten of them.)

I shoulda bought four.
