My 1983 PC appears to be dying, which may give me an excuse to replace
it, if nothing as simple as a loose connection turns up.  I am
interested in a 286 or maybe 386SX machine at the low end of the price
spectrum (definitely below $1500, incl. monitor etc.).  Can anyone give
me recommendations for or against the machines made by PC Brand,
CompuAdd, or Zeos -- or strong recommendations about any machine in
this category?

Many thanks,
