Getting old laptops noone wants anymore

Post by Xc3ll3rator »

I want to get another old laptop that I can do something different with. Where exactly can I get one without paying too much for one? Plus, if someone has one they just don't want to deal with anymore, let me know!

I can probably sell you one for around the cost of shipping.

Put a want ad in the paper's classifieds. It shouldn't cost too much.

Also list on CraigsList, and see if there are any already listed in your area.

I have an iBook G3 that just needs a new battery (a new keyboard is already in the mail for it so that's settled). It functions fine as a decent netbook for basic web stuff. It's the 16-VRAM model, and has 640MB ram. I'd let it go for 120.
