need an inexpensive laptop

where can i get a decent but inexpensive laptop..primary use internet/email etc.

would have to work with a wireless network at home.

New or used?

Cheapest new I found is Dell's Inspiron Celeron... for $799 (some times the deal for $699 comes around). Just remember its quite heavy to carry around, but will do all email/internet stuff.

If you wanna go even cheaper, then go for used/refurbished. www.surpluscomputers.com regularly offers good deals. Not many guarantees though.

If you are willing to part with $1k+, then the options increase a lot.

faisal nyah used refurbished is fine, it will be a secondary laptop I want to keep upstairs. i am looking to spenr 500 or so. as long as this thing has decent speed, works and is not too damn bulky, its okay.

Factory Refurbished should be available around $500 to $600..

take a look at this IBM Celeron 800MHz

I will give you an "especial" deal! Been meaning to replace it since its almost three years old now.

Peer ji, please Choudhry sahib se rabita qaim karaain. He is in possession of a couple of laptops that fit the bill.
P.S. I think he was saying he was willing to sell it for $500, however, since I am giving you the info...price now is $750.
