A child is going to give the laptop a physically hard time, so I'd be looking at a price point that will allow for the inevitable replacement. I have purchased a lot of ex-lease gear from PC Traders in Auckland and its always been excellent value. Leased (ie business) equipment tends to favour functionality over glitz and the by the time the usual three year lease period is up the ones that are going to fail will probably have done so already. Of the 140 -135 odd devices (laptops, desktops, monitors) I have purchased from PC Traders I've returned 1 laptop that the audio would not work. There have been a few in-service hard drive failures but HDDs are more or less consumables anyway. I tend to favour HP and Dell.
it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
those cheap ass bitches can do anything with ductape.
