I have never understood the difficulty with finding cheap frontends... I
could find you three for $100 easy.   For example:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-DC7100-SFF-Desktop-Pent-4-3-0GHz-40GB-HDD-1GB-RAM-DVDROM-NO-OS-S-/221191905156?pt=Desktop_PCs&hash=item3380109f84

I had nearly identical hardware as my primary frontend for the longest
time, and worked almost as well as my current custom built $400 frontend.
 I'd probably still be using it if my wife didn't take issue with the
appearance, of course it was a large Dell GX280 mid-tower so I can't blame
her.
