Folks, pay attention, please! The OP asked about a laptop.
Pansonic Thoughbook is not a laptop! It's a real desktop.
Thanks.
I picked up a Core 2 Duo Toughbook for $40 US on eBay a month or so back. I
had to spend another $9 to get an Intel WiFi card for it but it worked

a powerhouse dev machine, but for email, web, etc it works great. The wifi
