help required- want desktop base unit

Hi, If anyone could help me it would be appreciated.
I am after a desktop base unit, I don't need a mouse, keyboard or monitor as I have these already.
The only reason I need this PC for is for internet use and it would therefore need to have a wireless connection built in. I have a laptop to use for everything else including DVD burning etc and I don't play computer games. I am not an expert on how quick the computer has to be however I have a 8mb broadband connection and I really do need my internet to be as quick as possible as my work on the internet is extremely time sensitive. I don't know where to begin to look so any sort of help would be great.
Many thanks

Some cheap second hand ones here:

This particular model is W2000, so wpa won't work, but wep will.
If the PC is going to be next to the router, you could use a wired connection, otherwise you would need to buy a wireless dongle for about £20-30 to add wireless.
Or if you want new..
