Yeah, sometimes you just have to stopgap, as much as it can hurt to do so and have to put off the big upgrade you really need in the process.
I've done some recent casual looking with an eye towards replacing my desktop machine here (my laptop is faster than it by a margin and a half). It doesn't look like I'll be able to assemble a machine worth the effort for under $400, partly because I don't want to put together something that's rather "bare bones" if I'm going to that amount of effort.
