LapTop Help...

ok so i want to get a laptop for school…

what i need is something that has windows xp and microsoft word and other programs…
also i need to be able to use the internet…

im looking to spend around 200-300
ive been checking ebay but i have no clue what to look for?

you’re not going to get a very good laptop for 200-300 bucks…

consider Software free… look on ebay for something in your price range… WITH NOTHING INSTALLED…

any reason you are on such a tight budget? if its lack of money… Get a laptop off ebay and i’ll load everything (software wise that you will need for school)

get preferably a dell, (easy easy to work on if shit breaks) and make sure it has the following…

at least 256mb of ram
at least 1ghz processor
an ethernet card (preferably 10/100)
and at least 10gb harddrive

I’ve had a lot of bad experience buying cheaper laptops off of ebay.

well i have to buy a winter car soon and im trying to save for both…

thanks for the advice… at least i know where to start now

if you decided to go dell, pm me and i’ll give you the coupon code for 15% that i get through my school.

and where are you going to school if you don’t mind me asking.

something tells me 15% off still won’t get him down to 300…

no…no it wont

i was just being nice…but i’ll keep my eyes open…have you checked slickdeals.net?

ECC…
