400mhz, 128mb memory laptop...where?

[MistaTastyCakes]

Where can I buy a laptop w/ 128mb of RAM, and a 400mhz processor or more, nice and cheap? I'm talking $400 or so. I'm not big on Ebay.. are there any other alternatives? I need something in the 400-450 price range that will simply run Windows 2000, IE, and AIM w/ USB or a PCMCIA slot for Wireless Networking. Any help would be great...thanks!

Edit: I've been seeing P3's and P3-M's. Is the P3-M considerably better than the P3?

Best Buy has a brand new laptop for $550 after rebate. It is a lightweight laptop that sounds like it will be able to do what you want. I have seen the laptop and used it a little and it is solidly built. There have been some problems with the CPU fan but other than that it is a good system.

Tiger Direct has some... they're probably a little too expensive though. Maybe check with Dell... from what I've heard, they tend to clear out some inventory for dirt cheap prices every now and then.

AT FS/FT forums are THE best ... I got my laptop (450mhz, 192mb ram) for about $300, no battery though ... but it was an awesome deal)
