for two to three hundred dollars, you could probably get a laptop that makes a weird noise when you try to turn it on and nothing more. you are asking for a very tall order dude

ive found a bunch of cheap (200 or so) albeit old laptops on craigslist...they still have office and internet capabilities though, and that's all i really need.

Look for around 1GHz of a processor and 256MB of RAM.

Can't use eBay for reasons i'd rather not discuss...but Craig's List is easier and more reliable anyway...since you have to pick up, you get a chance to take a look and make sure there are no problems before you pay.
