I am looking for a cheap, rugged and all out reliable laptop on the cheap. It will be used, for the most part, internet surfing. I would like one that is not only physically tough, but it's programming can take the abuse of sudden powering off via the power button that seems to happen a lot to our old one. It would also be a travel computer, so lightweight and smallish screens are a good option, but not completely necessary. Also, if it has a wireless card built in, that's great. But if it doesn't that it isn't too big of a deal. The only program it truly needs is Internet Explorer, and anything unnecessary will probably be deleted.

thanks for the help.

Windows XP please!
