Well, there's really no such thing as a laptop, or any computer, for that matter, that isn't obsolete within 6 months.. but, you're not likely to get a good new one for $500.. but, you can get good puters that will last for quite some time..
For the price range, you're looking at a used system, just be sure that you have a trustworthy dealer.. Or, go to www.tigerdirect.com

for around $500 there is not much with a Pentium M. in that price range and below you will find mostly notebooks with Celeron processors.
a pretty good Acer notebook for $598 with a Pentium M740 and DVD-writer is this one
