This answer hits all the right points. PC/GPU mining isn't what it once was. You'd probably start burning out components before hitting $100.
I would also recommend the Antminer U3. It's cheap, easy to use and I think it looks cool. If you're interested in learning about cryptocurrencies and want to start experimenting, this would be a great way to get a feel for mining. Related links below.

Antminer U3 for $75 would be a good place to start. Or if you want a stand alone unit get an S1 or S3 used. Keep in mind that regardless of what you buy there is a 99% chance you will not earn enough to cover hardware+power costs. For example the $75 U3, will not earn you $75 worth of BTC.
A simple install mining app would be multiminerapp.com ... it has a user interface and what now. I use this with my Antminer U2 USB based miners.
I started out with the U2 USB miner. http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00ITD5NV6/ref=sr_1_1_olp?ie=UTF8&qid=1421524190&sr=8-1&keywords=antminer+u2&condition=used
A newer model would be the U3 miner http://www.amazon.com/Bitmain-Antminer-Bitcoin-Miner-Domestic/dp/B00OQSXMA2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1421524228&sr=8-1&keywords=antminer+u3
You might be able to make your money back over time with the U3 miner if you dont take electricity into account (which im assuming your not when u use the word 'hobby')
