Why waiste money on cheap?  If you want to be cheap ask a family member or friend if they have one they do not need and want to give away. Or they will give it to for something else or some service like if your cook you service a party for them at discount, plummer, lawyer and etc.

If you buy a cheapo computer and a laptop at that, it's going to take all three of those days to find one good move.

I have no idea what you mean by question 2.

That is my point and he has to think ahead as he will want to add other ones and programs and etc. That cheap laptop may not allow that to happen. Then it would be a waste. Unless he can get somebody to give him one without any money coming out of his pocket. It make take some time but i believe it is possible. Also somebody around that wants to see you reach your goals.

well maybe by using the words dirt cheap I gave you the wrng end of the stick mainly I am looking for something good for less than 500 euro and I already have a netbook so I asuure I only need the computer to run the one program.
