I have an Acer Aspire laptop that I'm very happy with. I purchased it several years ago for about $250. It originally had 2 GB of RAM, which I later upgraded to 8 GB, and the RAM upgrade may have kicked the total cost above the $299 limit.
The current model is selling at Amazon for $294. http://amzn.com/B00P6FM23W On Tue, May 26, 2015 at 6:07 PM, Edward Ned Harvey (blu) <b...@nedharvey.com> wrote: > hehehehe, wanna try that again with the message in the message body > instead of the subject? > > Subject truncated. > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Discuss [mailto:discuss-bounces+blu=nedharvey....@blu.org] On > > Behalf Of John J.
