How can I buy a good used laptop computer for my start-up home business?

Things I should watch out for: I plan to use the laptop to show, in Powerpoint, sales presentations to potential clients, to make on-line purchases, to gather new marketing info, and to keep track of business transactions, etc. Any ideas, thanks for the suggestions.

now that a good laptop brand new is under $500 go to frys.com they're the best and a well equiped used one is hard to find.
HI, I think i have a good laptop coz i bought a new one and i dont use the other one. Also if you are into Marketing then may be we can do something as i was looking for A marketing guy. I myself am too bad at that.
Check out the outlet section of major manufacturers and retailers like dell, averatec, ecost and geeks
definitely go to www.ebay.com My friend picked one up for $800 below retail of a new one. The key is to find ones that end at unusual times e.g. 4am or have the wrong spelling.

Also check out the Apple store talk to the manager and ask him/her when they have a refurbished sale It happens once a month at most stores usually the second Saturday of the month
