I'm shopping for a laptop for my grandmother. The odd thing is that she doesn't need a high performance grade, just a laptop that is reasonably obsolescent and highly durable for the lowest possible cost.

Forumfall, need ur help.

I know a good gaming laptop you could get for 580 dollars :P http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=210566267

for a cheapo brick laptop go to amazon.com, buy.com, newegg.com etc.

I usually like deals at newegg.com and officemax.com and officedepot.com

don't go to sams.com, bestbuy seems to have shit deals, but sometimes they have INCREDIBLY clearance deals. Don't go to hp.com right now, the red tag sale doesn't give you anything special other than a free blu ray player. At dell.com you could probably get a cheap as shit computer that runs like shit.

Lol before christmas on black friday I remember radioshack selling a cpu in the newspaper for 99$, I doubt that deal is still there though :

EDIT: almost forgot, see if you can get anything at almost bankrupt circuitcity.com

Thanks

oh, forgot about this: look at the deal sites (lol I've been looking for a laptop for myself for a while.)

go to www.computermonger.com and narrow the deals your looking for.

Also look for deals2buy.com
and deals.com and http://reviews.cnet.com/laptops/?tag=TOCleftColumn.0

it would help to just search in google for "laptop deals" or something like that too

Did anyone ever figure out whether morons really do breed and age faster than the rest of us?

Regardless, shoo Op. Go try to lick the inside of a light socket or something, I need to go lie down anyways and don't have time to properly congratulate you on your idiocy, fucking concussion...

I don't understand why the OP is getting flamed O.o . Did he say something against Darkfall? Against Jews?

Anyway the only thing I can see someone flaming OP about is that he couldn't figure this shit out by himself, since cheap crappy laptops are everywhere
