The Wal-mart in my town has a HP cleranced for 798 down from 998.

mobile athlon 2200
256 DDR Ram
30 GB HDD
15" XGA screen
dvd-rom/cd-rw and floppy drive
10/100 Lan
v.90/v.92 modem

Plus it has a printer/copier/scanner included.

Looked pretty good to me, but I'm not a big laptop guy.

Dell seems to have specials all the time. Check out their refurb section too.

If size isnt a problem ... you can get an Inspiron 1100, or even a 5100, if you get a good deal..
