a beater/low-end laptop for a specific purpose.
Should run a pretty recent version of Windows (except ME), have the cojones for minimal broadband Web work, and a copy of Word would be nice.
CD-ROM a plus; CD-RW pretty snazzy. If not a RW, a basic floppy drive wou;dnt’ be out of line.
Main criteria: the type of unit that wouldn’t kill me if I lost it.
Any one got one? Any price range thoughts? Any thing else I should be thinking of?
[And no — not a Mac, or Linux, or anything else. This needs to be a mass-market, easily interchangeable unit. I’ll likely be getting a Mac (again! yay) for my next heavy duty ‘puter.]
That is all.

If you want to get a copy of Word for cheap and you don’t need any other Office Programs, Works Suite comes with Word at half the price of Office. The other option would be OpenOffice, which is free and is completely interoperable with Office, in my experience, and can do Word docs with not problem.

1’off’s tend to be more bang for the buck, but they also tend to be more generally questionable. anything that comes with any sort of “warranty” should be fine.
Clevo, mTech, Falcon, etc.

That was my guess, too. Any brand recommendations? I want to look around here first.
