Simple challenge for /g/

The rules are simple
1. It must be a laptop
2. The total cost including shipping for all parts must be $100 or less
3. It must available to purchase publicly
4. No auctions

Other than this, it is up to you. Define "best" in whatever manner you feel appropriate.

Funny joke. Go buy some shittop off Craigslist.

>>51992963
go on ebay, type in "thinkpad", select free shipping and take your pic.
Pretty much all thinkpads made before 2010 can be had for less than $100, I'm using one right now.
>>
>no auctions
Might as well not bother.

Old thinkpads are a definite go-to though. Business-class laptops on the cheap.
Old but they still work good.
