Buying Cheap Laptops

[Mr. Boldin]

I was wondering if anyone knew where I could buy a really cheap laptop that still had some decent features?

So far ebay has the best ones ive seen for cheap ($150) P3, 250 megs RAM, 20 gig HD, ethernet card...

Does anyone else know of anywhere to buy laptops this cheap?

I just bought a very nice new computer, but I would like to add a laptop, just for word processing, interenet, diagnostics, small things like that.

Thanks

My wife has this laptop but it's a 2.8 ghz with a 15 inch screen..... the only thing that sucks about it is how hot it gets. I mean it heats up.....

Yeah, I read some reviews about this laptop and everyone says they get extremely hot. Any way to cool the laptop down some what?

I haven't checked out that link yet Ryan, but I intend to! My laptop gets really hot also. It's a Gateway M275.

Chill Pad

I have this one on mine and it works great... It is a laptop but without this pad there is no way you could ever set this on you lap...
