Looking for one with:
Hard drive 20+gigs
Processor 1.2+Ghz
Windows XP/Vista
Wireless Card

Just looking for something simple for web browsing/itunes nothing hardcore. Looking to spend around $200. Looking all over, figured I'd post here too

If you don't mind something smaller than the average notebook I would recommend an asus eee pc. They have the 9 inch version on ebay for around 319 .. if you sign up for live search from microsoft you can get 35% back after 60 days (for a limited time). Which brings the 9 inch down to 208 shipped. Or you can get the 10 inch version for around 420 or 273.

I have one of the 10 inch ones with a 160gb hd 1.6ghz 1gb of ram and wireless b/g/n and with the cash back it came out around 340 back when the cash back was only 25%

the eee pc are so ridiculously stupid, don't buy one

MSI Wind. Can't go wrong with it.

I dunno, while I like the concept of netbooks like the eee pc and the dell mini 9 and what have you, I really can't get over the eyestrain inducing screens :/

yeah those have like the resolution of an iphone screen, literally

Hey, I'm in agreement. The concept of "netbooks" is ridiculous. If you can carry a laptop, than you can carry a genital searing Alienware god damnit!

Surcam,

I have a 14" Dell I can probably part with for about that. Battery's more or less shot though. Gets about 45 minutes.

craigslist if you live near a city

other than that, you can buy a pretty nice laptop for about 600 these days.
