I will admit - had not checked out the Dell Outlet - even though I did hear about it a little while ago. But, yes - for now - $500 is more than I wanted to spend. Will try to keep it in mind for the future.
And - yes - MUST Be Windows - so Lenovo is out - if the Rootkit is really a problem. -K- -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:profoxtech-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf Of Kevin Cully Sent: Wednesday, August 19, 2015 12:12 PM To: profoxt...@leafe.com Subject: Re: [NF] Laptop Dying & a Cheap Replacement ASAP... Have you tried looking at the Dell Outlet? i5 CPU machines are starting at about $500 though. http://outlet.us.dell.com/ARBOnlineSales/Online/InventorySearch.aspx?brandId=2201&c=us&cs=22&l=en&s=dfh I would say Lenovo outlet but since you're going to be running Windows, I wouldn't recommend it with their rootkit problem.
