Dave,
If you are looking for an economy laptop, I would steer you to the
refurbished IBM laptops. They are typically priced at $240 and up
loaded with Windows 7 professional. See
http://www-304.ibm.com/shop/americas/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/default/CategoryDisplay?categoryId=2576396&storeId=1&catalogId=-840.
I have had good success with the IBM/Lenovo computers - they just keep
on running, but then I normally use only desktops, the laptop is only
for infrequent travel purposes.

Hello, All -
I’d like to get the K3 and KX3 on HF digital and am wondering if anyone can
recommend a reasonably priced PC laptop which would do that. My experience has
been only Macintosh so the PC laptop world is unknown territory. A decent
keyboard and a trackpad are pretty essential, but that’s about the only
hard-and-fast requirements.
Another question; I have an older iBook G3 on which I’m attempting to install
Linux. Has anyone done that?
Thanks,
Dave K9SW
