At Omaha's Friendly Computers, Rob Farmanek rebuilds some units as part of his computer repair > business, but he said that mostly low-use and low-income buyers will take a chance on a used unit.

"Used towers offer discounts for low to moderate users," Farmanek said. "Sometimes, parts can be newer inside. Some (used buyers) are older and are just starting out. They don't want to start with even a $600 new system."

Farmanek said he doesn't resell used keyboards or mouses. Wonder why? If you ever eat lunch over your keyboard, peer between the keys for the answer.
