I now run a lenovo T60 running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS which I bought for around £100 from Morgan compurers - a refurbished model. It was easy to install Ubuntu and get rid of win xp. Since buying it I have suffered from low vision but it has been quite easy for me to install all the assistive technology needs that I need now and may need in the future. Be brave!
