If buying on Trademe, that might be a bit awkward.. Ask the seller a
question first to check they are OK with the 'must boot knoppix' idea.
A a question for Dave G, what sort of spec are you looking for? I've
got an old 486 laptop that runs DSL (barely) you can have for well under

it doesn't have to be all that flash at all as I want it as a bit of a
knock around but I need to running some $windoze only mapping software &
GPS using VMware so I probably need 500mb min. ram and better than 1-1.5
gig processor I guess??
