my trusty (really) old Sony Vaio died over the weekend (won't power on at all), so i'm looking to purchase a replacement, but i'm on a budget. does anyone have a laptop that is fully functional, that they'd be willing to sell me with the following minimum specs:
* PIII-600Mhz
* 256MB RAM
* 10GB HDD
* CDROM drive (DVD would be a nice bonus)
* real modem *OR* two PCMCIA slots
* 1024x768 @16bpp
* lightweight (no 10lb monsters)
* will run linux without any crazy hacks or limitations


i'd also pay shipping if you're not in the San Francisco Bay area. so, if you've got one that you're interested in selling, please contact me off list with specs & how much you'd like for it.

I'd also consider purchasing a new laptop, but my budget is limited to roughly US$1000, so it might be difficult to find something in that area. If anyone has recommendations, i'd love to hear them. I'd really rather not go to eBay, as i've heard way too many nightmare stories of folks getting scammed on computer hardare there. thanks.
