You shoudl be able to get a computer through your school for cheap. The bookstore should be able to tell you where to go.\n\nAlso, I know that Apple offers student discounts.

Ask at a local business, if they've got any spare old computers that they don't want. They might sell you them for cheap.\n\nOr ebay. you can get a computer that will run linux on it for like, £20. Postage is a bit more on top of that though of course.

Those rent-a-center places will be lenient on the credit and get you approved to rent to own. It's expensive that way but doable.\n\nOr- check your local classifieds. ask your family for cash for Christmas instead of gifts. Then just buy one.\n\nSome stores offer in-store credit too. Try MicroCenter. Their ad this week had a laptop for under $300.

A place where you can access your laptop, palm, pocketPC... wirelessly. Of course, some of them cost you, while others don't (if you buy a cuppa coffee! :D)

Most 'Pound Shops' sell them, HyperValue, PC World. They are cheap enough.

If you get junk mail from department stores, check those out. I saw a laptop in a BigW catalogue for $1500. Acer with 512mb ram, 60gb hd. nice.

no, laptops are not cheapest in HongKong. In HK u can purchase laptop from required company's sales branch office.

Check to see if the college she wants to attend has a surplus inventory.  I recently encountered one that did and students could buy used computers for as little as $25.  You would want to check with their computer services department.\n\nIf the college she wants to go to does not, contact a local large college or university and ask if they have surplus, and if so how she could purchase used equipment.

Where?!?!?!?!  I already have my credit card out, just point me in the right direction.  In all seriousness, you can get one for $400, but NOT with all the trimmings, in fact it probably won't have any trimmings.  $700 to $1500 is still what I would call pretty decent range for a good laptop.

Dell or PC World... if you do go to PC World, the advent ones are cheap and cheerful... don't let them talk you into buying anything else for it though (unless its a bag and you want one)!!

Try http://www.tigerdirect.com or http://www.netegg.com They usually have refurbished cheap computers for low prices.\n\nIf you want to see consumer reports on computers, then check out http://www.cnet.com\n\nIf you want really good but expensive computers or laptops, try Dell or Toshiba.\n\nGateway and Compaq sucks.

no, just get a basic computer with a 30 gig or better hard drive, at least 512mb of ram, and broadband internet service, if needed you could beef up some options later.

You may buy parts or laptops (and take parts from them) on auctions. Check your local ad. You my surprised.
