heres the thing,

first you have to define your company infrastrcutre needs

What OS and user structure am i going to use ?
A windows server with Domain policy and profiles might be a bit harsh on those littel machines, you might find yourself out powered becuase of a badly placed or designed domain structure or domain administratior machines.

What applications am i going to use and what are their minimum envirenment ?

I work in Telco, so we usualy have our secureCRT/Putty sessions, and we use Amdocs and Remedy for ticketing, and then on top of that some clients have their own have their own interfaces, that means java, flash, javascript, Citrix Xen, RDP and other things that might need a bit more horse power.

What i would do depends on the number of machines i need, a big number of stations would mean i wouldnt bother, i would just go to dell/hp/lenovo or whoever and say "i need a lease proposal for 100 machines on a company contract"

for a small office, less then 20 boxes ?

a "decent" pure chineasium machine like a Beelink Apolo lake N4200 is 200 bucks

The issue is that if you´re willing to go certified refurbished, you can get really good offers for really superior machines from Dell or HP

240 bucks gets you a I3 with 4gb fo ram and 500gb drives
