Whats a Desktop Deal:

There are many factors you need to take into account in order to make something a deal. Manufacturer, Product line, Specs and warranty are usually what to look at when figuring that out. You need to consider prices as well, sometimes you get a price so hot that it doesn't matter what company it is.

Generally speaking here are the guidelines for Intel processors:

i3 8th Gen processor - Under $300 is usually a hot deal, Under $350 is decent
i5 8th Gen Processor - Under $400 is a Usually a Hot Deal
i7 8th Gen Processor - Under $600 is a Usually Hot Deal

to be continued....

For anyone who wants a sleek looking all in one and doesn't need such high end specs this looks like a nice deal with the current $100 off staples coupon.

I'm looking for a desktop for browsing and emails. Want to spend as little as possible as this is for a secondary PC. Any deals out there?

Do all computers have the option of adding a second monitor or some are limited to one?

Just make sure they have at least 2 output ports (VGA, DVI, HDMI etc.).
In any case, you can always get a graphics card for $30.

Some slim or small form factor computers are harder to add graphic cards to, but most of them are ok with no problem

Just to clarify above posts, just about all budget, and many mid-level systems will require a CG upgrade
