68608 2002-08-06 04:40:00 I have a Laptop - PI 266 / 32Mb / 3Gb

It's dying :( It's a cripple already - battery is stuffed (now a desktop), some keys fallen off the keyboard, screen only emits a dim orange glow, and takes 2-3 goes before it boots up each morning. Too expensive to fix.

Anyway, I was wondering if anybody had a PC that they could lend or sell very cheap, as Im broke (read real broke) and can't afford much over $5 a week.

I have a mouse and monitor, and probably can get a keyboard cheap, just need the PC. Would prefer at least similar specs to my laptop, as I run software that is design for much faster PC's! (Ever tried editing an 640 x 480 graphic in Photoshop 6 on a PI?)

Thanks heaps
