There's a ton of them on eBay, but that's probably an answer you seen coming.

I may have something laying around I'd sell cheap, let me look.

Check that site, it's Dell's outlet store like mentioned above.

I don't have anything that meets what you're needing, but I'm sure you can find something reasonable online.

We were thinking about getting my wife a new laptop. I might be able to sell you hers.

HP Pavilion ze2000
Windows XP
800MHz
384 MB of RAM
60G HD
DVD R/RW

We've had it for almost 2years. Mainly used to work and surf on the net in front of the TV. Hasn't been "taken out" much and its in really good shape cosmetically, no scratches on the screen. Let me know if you're interested.
