Ending today, Lucky Dog Electronics via eBay offers the refurbished Dell Inspiron 660 Intel Ivy Bridge Core i5 3GHz Desktop PC (no monitor) for $399.99 with free shipping. That's tied as the lowest total price we've seen for a Dell Inspiron 660 PC with 8GB RAM and a 1TB hard drive. (We saw a new unit for the same price during Black Friday week.) Features include an Intel Core i5-3330 3GHz quad-core Ivy Bridge processor, 8GB RAM, 1TB 7200 rpm hard drive, DVD burner, 802.11n wireless, media card reader, and Windows 8 64-bit.
