I need a good used laptop just for basic personal use...internet, e-mail, creating documents and spreadsheets. Any recommendations on reliable brands, minimum processor speeds, minimum RAM, minimum hard drive size, etc...that I could get for less than $200?
Thanks.
 
i bought a dell xps M1530 brand new in 2008 and it's still better than alot of the shit i see coming out these days. you could probably find a used one for cheap. also this thing is freaking indestructible, always seems to fix itself somehow...

has a hdmi port, 3 usb ports, internet jack for gaming/landlines, cd/dvd burner, 15" screen, fingerprint scanner, 1394 jack, expresscard 54, firewire, svideo, and vga jacks, two headphone jacks and a remote control. definitely worth checking out.
 
$200? Wow, I can't imagine you'll get anything worth much for that. I recently bought an ASUS for work and spent around $500 for it. Has been exactly what I needed. It's not fancy, but I run an EMR, internet, e mail on it and nothing much else. Sounds similar to what you're doing with yours. No gaming and no processor intensive stuff.
 
I am trying to sell my Asus if you are interested, not for $200 but I'd take like $100 off whatever the going rate is for used Asus comps
