Something in the range of $1000 (Canadian), ~2Ghz, at least 256MB RAM and 40GB HD. Any suggestions?

Hmm, if you can manage to save up a little more, I'd suggest an Apple Powerbook. Those lil' puppies are pretty slick pieces of equipment.

I found a few within the range you're looking to spend though:

Laptops are so expensive, and I don't have a use for them... and that's why I don't mind using a desktop. Besides, there are actually school laptops that I could use.

If he doesn't have access to something portable, then I'd recommend it...

I've seen laptops as low as $400, but they're pretty outdated... should I post links to them?

Well it really depends what you need laptop for, if you want one for work then by no means
do you have to spend loads of money.

I haven't noitced any nice deals on laptops lately, but if I see something ill be sure to post it.

I hear Powerbooks are nice, but wouldn't I have to use Mac OS? That's not really an option.

That is nice, but when you say 900, do you mean US or Canadian?

BTW: My main uses for it would be ROM hacking, the Internet, basically everything you'd do on any other PC (and maybe watching anim
