    One of the later model Compaq M700s? Were a corporate workhorse for years, so quite a few about and loads bits on Ebay (docking stations etc.). Battery on refurbs will generally be unwarranted though :(
  • ebay is a great site, stick with the guys who have good feedback on refurbed laptops, ittrader1 sells great products at a great price, personally if price is the driver go for a dell d600 or better at around £200 - £300. You should get at least 40gb, an intel centrino mobile and 512 mb ram, the last one I bought was in perfect condition
