If you can count on them fixing most of the little problems they get themselves into, I'ld reccommend getting a used pc from ebay coupled with a better brand-new screen. The "security" brands offer is IMHO sometimes needed/helpful with laptops or in large offices where standartization helps administrators. The screen is often the longest lasting item and the one where your $ will be well spent. Noise also can be a deciding factor - but even a cheap self built box with a silent fan can be quite effective - I have put most of my machines in a separate machine room which is wonderful if you can manage.
