Flygirl Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Looking to spend in $350 range . I dont want a netbook though . Needing a cheap laptop for my dd . Stupid me decides after bf to get her one. Any help would be appreciated tia
junior01 Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 geeks.com just had some at a good price, not sure if they are still there but were in that price range
PennyCarter Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 I didn't want a netbook either, but decided to get the Acer Aspire One. I am using it now and love it. If you don't want a small computer, then this isn't for you, but if it was the harddrive (my reason for not wanting one) this one has 160gb. Definitely not for everyone, it is still very small, but works for me. :) Amazon has them on sale today.
arelf27 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Newegg.com I think they have one on sale for $400 now. It should be on Main Page of this site. My hubby was looking for a cheap laptop too and have bought two already (one for him and one for his brother.) I think one was right after BF and one yesterday both from Newegg. We've never ordered from them before but he's completely satisfied with the way the transaction went and with his new laptop. It's an Acer. I think they have a special Today too, some % off if you use PayPal or you can use Bill Me Later and not pay for a few month with no interest.

Is this true? she would use for cd games and dvds . The size and color would be great for her though
Cru Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 I just purchased this computer on Sunday from Best Buy. No guarantee, but when I talked to one of their customer reps. he said they are continually getting stock in and more may come available this week. The sale is thru Saturday. Good Luck!http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9038016&type=product&id=1218011767070

Cru Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 Not sure if you find a laptop or not, but www.newegg.com has a $399 Acer with almost the exact same specs as the one I got at Best Buy. http://www.newegg.com/product/product.aspx?Item=N82E16834115543
