Cheap Laptops
So, one of my friend wants to purchase a laptop for around $100 and asked me to find her one..
It doesn't have to be the best as long it is working and not too shitty..
lol
In my opinion, I wouldn't even buy a laptop that cheap...
#2
Do they even sell them for that cheap? LMAO.
Sorry, but she would have to find and trust someone off of Ebay or Amazon.
#3
Dude I dont even know..
The cheapest I seen is like 250.. and i dont even trust those lol.
#4
The cheapist i've ever seen is like around $50 but that one kept crashing and was as is with a whole lot of viruses on it but i found that on ebay of course.
#5
Just go buy a new one for $350 unless she wants a mini laptop, which is around $250.
#6
Any suggestions on whats the best laptop?

Do NOT Get a netbook. The only ones you find that cheap are netbooks. Try a Lenovo IdeaPad Y510 - Its a pretty good laptop for $400-ish bucks, and has a huge screen that you can watch movies on. Its $700 new, but on ebay their only 400 because the laptop is from 2007. I have it and I love it :)

Specs:

Intel Pentium Dual Core Processor
Windows Vista Home Premium
2.00 GB RAM
Mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset Family

Its pretty good, I like it :)

You can get a Netbook for around 100$. Though, they are only good for internet video.

Nevermind :)

Snagged a used laptop on craigslist, 500mb ram, builtin 4600 graphics card, no battery and the touchpad would ocassionally act up
Cost 50 bucks.

Mine was bought as a present from PC World. Was an average price I guess for about £389. I doubt you'll buy a laptop for $100 unless it was one of them mini ones xD
