$5 computer?
$5 computer?
So im cruising around on one of my bikes, and I pass this church which is having a basement sale, I wonder maybe they have an old bike there so I check it out. Just a couple of cheap mountain bikes, but I see a notebook computer sitting around some $2 black and white tvs and a boombox and crud like that. Its a compaq presario 700, looking it over it looks only a year or two old, even has a DVD player, I ask how much it is, they're like "ehh 5 bucks!" haha ok. I take it home and windows is all screwed up of course, so I reinstall windows XP on it, works fine! I guess the person messed windows up and was like "gee I broke it, damn, gotta get a new computer!" Its a 1.2 ghz, 256mb ram, 20 gig hard drive, dvd player/cd writer combo (i think), talk about a score? The only bitch is I just bought a notebook thats slightly a little better a few days ago for $600, but oh well, now Ive got a backup I guess.

Re: $5 computer?
thats a freaking good deal. Me and my friends at school were talking about getting one but hell we don't make enough money to afford it.
I'll give ya 100 dollars for it thats a profit on your hand.. (but serously I will buy it from you if you don't need)

Wow, that's an amazing deal for a good laptop. It's always fun to take advantage of idiots like that
Re: $5 computer?
Wow, that's a hell of a good deal! And I thought my manager's friend got a good deal. My manager told me her friend, who loves garage sales, bought a laptop for $10. It didn't have a hard drive or memory, but it still had the other stuff intact. Add a cheap HD and some RAM and it's still a good deal.
