I never really spent much on my PC's. The two laptops I have I got for $70 (then $60 for an SSD, and $35 for a powercord and ram upgrade) and $150 (then a $65 battery and $9 adapter), and my mom bought everything for my desktop build except my case which I spent $160 on. So $549 in total spent on PC's. Right now I want a SSD for my Thinkpad x220, but instead of spending money on a mSata drive to put my OS on I've been buying clothes and food instead. I don't really game or use my computer for more than web browsing and photo/video editing, so I haven't had a need to upgrade anything or spend more money on it.
