[PLUG] source for used laptops?

[Michael Rasmussen]

Belmont Computers has some Dells, I was told some of them also have a few
months warranty.
A Google on "used laptop computers" turns up several hits that are vendors.

http://usedlaptops.com carries lots of models.
http://commerce.www.ibm.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce/CategoryDisplay?cntrfnbr=1&cgr
fnbr=2123739&cgmenbr=1&cntry=840&lang=en_US is a link to IBM's refurbished
laptop page if you prefer to get it straight from the source.
