I just retired my Dell Inspiron 8300 and bought a laptop for about $1k. I needed the laptop since I visit a lot of clients and need portable computing. I have it set up with a docking station so it seems just like a desktop computer but can be portable too.
Regardless of desktop or laptop, anything you buy will be lightning fast compared to the old Dell (mine was 100% trouble free it's entire life). The new dual, quad, and core chips are incredebly fast. My internet speed seems to have doubled with the new computer, even though nothing has changed with the internet.
You can find many computers for less than 1K.
I would reccomend sticking with Dell - they have a good reliability record. I purchased an HP laptop and I am returning it this weekend and replacing with a Dell due to an overheating issue and it's only 1 month old.
Shop the Dell website and you can also look at the Best Buy site - sort by price.
