    amazon usually has pretty good prices with rebates, but nowhere is going to be "cheap" the most you'll probably save is 20% at most. apple refurbs are a good choice as well.

    Local sellers

    At least check your local classifieds (CraigsList)

    Actually if you want cheap, and just to run windows (XP, I hope) then try to find a really cheap Core Duo one, if you're lucky you might be able to get a 1.83 (probably no longer with AppleCare) for around $1000.
