Low-end Laptops?
cryingpoet writes: "I remember the good old days, before everyone wanted a cell phone or PDA, back when you could buy a used laptop for $80 (USD). Now all the affordable laptops have hit the recycling bins as raw materials for new screens. To make matters worse, the state of the economy has driven companies to stop upgrading and keep all used laptops "in-house." Most used laptops run twice their cpu clock speed in dollars [$ = MHz * 2($/MHz)]. Auction prices seem to be worse than that of wholeseller. So I come to you, /.ers, in the hopes that there are still some used laptop deals to be had. Is there such a thing as a low-end used laptop anymore, and where?"
Nah, those things are bolted down pretty good at Best Buy.
why don't you haul your lolly ass back to your mother's violated and (often) penetrated womb?
For those who want to know, and don't want to be led astray by trolls, this is a hamfest. It is a festival celebrating ham, and ham products. There are many of these fests all over America, many people attend them, and I think they deserve more credit than to be used as trolling material. The original poster must have found some good deals at one of these fests. Although I have never run across anyone selling electronics at one I highly recommend that you attend, unless you are a violent muslim or vegetarian, in which case you are not welcome.
Thank you.

Yet another person too lazy to do even the very most basic of research who instead asks slashdot.

"Remember when the U.S. had a drug problem, and then we declared a War On Drugs, and now you can't buy drugs anymore?"
Oh yes, open up cells containing packs of toxic materials. You trust the slashdot crowd too much. Me: I just hope that none of my neighbors take this advice. The last thing I need is lead, cadium and who knows what else seeping into my home from some dirty hippies cave.
One future, two choices. Oppose them or let them destroy us.
