A few people I know have asked me ("the laptop guy") to find them a sub-$200 internet/office laptop. They'll be running Windows 2000 SP4 with Firefox and Office 2K3. These are for very very very casual computer users. No need for wireless, super high resolution screens, burner drives, etc.

Minimum spec should be:
>500MHz CPU
>5GB hard drive
128MB RAM
XGA display
Ethernet port + modem
Decent battery (1hr)

Condition should be very presentable and functional. Battery life should be an hour or more. I'd get these people a desktop if portability wasn't an issue

I have some 16V ThinkPad power supplies, so I really don't need any with these.

Let me know if you've got something that fits the bill!
Thanks!

I have received a lot of messages. If I haven't responded, don't worry! I'm waiting on final confirmations from the interested parties.

Thanks!
