I've been looking on eBay and found a good deal on a laptop computer:
HTTP://cgi.ebay.com/Compaq-ARMADA-110-Laptop-700mhz-320MB-10GB-Windows-XP_W0QQitemZ320119959939QQihZ011QQcategoryZ140082QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotohosting
specs:
700MHz celeron
320MB RAM
10GB HDD
14" LCD
AC adapter
Battery (holds charge, supposedly)
Windows XP Media Center (notice how none of the pictures show it with any os loaded)
If it it what he says, this will be a sweet deal, if not, well Ièm screwed because the guarantee is non-DOA only.I wouldn't risk it. Keep the $130 you would spend and save it. Save $20-$50 a month from your paycheck and buy something good when you have enough money.A 700 Mhz Celeron and a 10 gig hard drive with 320 RAM with Media Center? I hope you have another OS to load.

I would pass, but I know you are an Armada fan. i do, I have 98se, 2000, XP home, kubuntu 6.10, vectorlinux...
I'm not an armada fan, I just keep finding them.It looks like you found 3! ok how about this one:

Win2K works fine on it. what about games and movies, how good can it play anything better than n64 quality?How about this one:
