WTB: Cheap _CHEAP_ laptop

[lewdvig]

14" or smaller screen 500 MHz or faster wifi would be a plus.

Also willing to trade an ATI X1900 AIW for a laptop of equal value (9 months of warranty w/receipt).

MIght as well post prices guys. That way if I don't buy your laptop someone else might.

head to laptop depot, might be able to get a deal there

Define cheap. Less than $100? Less than $500?

[lewdvig]

I would like something like an Armada M300 for $200-250. But I might pay more for something newer. An old Portege or Libretto would be nice too.

Something old, thin and light.

There are a lot of these on eBay in my price range. I will wait a bit longer for a local deal and then pull the trigger on an eBay deal.

Locked to Windows?

[lewdvig]

Nope. I love macs. I saw a used Pismo posted on another board that I was thinking of replying to.

Linux is cool too.
