Yeah it amazes me how cheap laptops are now. The cheap ones arent that great, but still, a laptop for 500 bucks is a great deal.
I member when you couldnt get one for less then 1000.

I know back in 1996 a Pentium 166 mhz processor was $1000! We got the Pentium 133 mhz for $750 in our new computer ($2500) at the time from Ultinet in Ontario. Man we had problems with that computer at first. Windows 95 crashed the second day and they forgot to install the S3 Virge 3D accelerator (piece of junk and was replaced by a Nvidia Riva 128). Ah..good times 
FYI: The Nvidia Riva 128 was the video card that launched them to success. I wonder what happened to that thing...
