I am looking to replace my 'catch all' laptop as it's dying a slow and painful death. I was hoping some of our computer guru's might be able to direct me to some websites that have clearance, refurbished, etc. available. I would prefer to stay with Windows XP as I do not feel like being a Vista guinea pig. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
all the "Big Box" stores (e.g. Staples, BestBuy, etc.) have warehouse outlets. My brother picked up a nice notebook at half price, because there was a scratch on the cover.
Great list so far guys, thanks! What do you think of this one from Gatway's outlet store: http://www.gateway.com/reman/hm_Notebook_1009442_832_Certified_Refurbished_NX570_Notebook.shtml It's a refurb, but for $600 it looks decent with a Duo processor. I don't understand all the lingo, so any feedback would be great.
Try Wal-Mart as well ... no lie... if your looking for a decent HP, Toshiba or Compaq give it a look ...... http://www.walmart.com/catalog/catalog.gsp?cat=4070&fromPageCatId=3951&catNavId=3951
first - I am not going to buy used; however a clearance model, scratch n dent, refurb is fine with me. I guess a refurb could be considered used, but I am ok with a refurb. I should also note that this is NOT for any trading app's at all. This is purely a laptop to do my other stuff on to keep the trading computers clean.
