If not there then where? I heard of places that sell laptops for 250 but I always wonder if they work. I could fix them to work, but what I really want is one that aready works. I just don't have 700 dollars for a brand new laptop (besides I need to buy a desktop and the one I need cost around 1200).

Anybody buy laptops from computer shops for less than 300? Don't need an OS, nor a dvd player. Just memory (512mb) usb ports and pcmcia ports for wireless cards.

I don't want to get another Apple power adapter - it's designed very badly, and it's expensive. I'm looking for a replacement one that has been tried and true. Any suggestions?

I've got s-video on my laptop and tv, I've connected everything properly because I can see what i'm typing on my laptop on my tv screen at this moment. But...
whenever I try watching video or streaming video the movie is displayed on my laptop but not on my tv.
For example, if i put a dvd into my laptop the film will play fine on my laptop, but what i see on the tv is the dvd software playing but no actual video, just black screen. I've configured my display settings etc, I just can't see where I'm going wrong. Unless I need to upgrade my laptop graphics card driver or upgrade my graphics card altogether!

Any suggestions?
Cheers
