Apr. 18th, 2007 05:06 pmDear livejournal,
My mom wants to buy a used or refurbished laptop for herself. It doesn't need fancy bells and whistles. Just a wireless card and it needs to have XP, as I have no desire to teach her Vista. Anyone have any suggestions of where I can look for something for her? I'd like to stay away from Dell, but I guess I'm not specifically attached to any other brands. I love my Vaio, of course, but she should be okay with a Compaq or maybe an Acer or even a HP. Okay, maybe not a HP.
You guys R smrt and stuff, so I though you might have some ideas!
Thanks in advance!

Plus, Acer makes the best laptops. They have great consumer ratings, better than Dell and HP. While the bigger name desktops like Dell, etc. are great, their laptops have some issues.
Okay, my little commercial is over! Good luck! :)
