I've used cheaper thin clients in the past. You can get them much cheaper than $50 and they come ready to go with storage, power supply, and case.

Pshh. A case? I have a perfectly good tea bag box here.

Thin clients are good if you don't need much storage. They usually don't have any way to add more except for USB.
