Many batteries in second hand laptops are little to no use, so you know before you buy. Buy as long as you can plug them in you'll be fine.
Have you been to the Pratt. surplus store lately. Its disappointing, they got rid of all their good stuff. no more dollar bin and no more cheap crt's. I got a 21inch dell crt made in 2004 that was absolutely perfect for only 5 bucks!

I used to love that place. I am sad to see it turn into what it has. An over priced slightly used and new computer store. no more hunting for bargains, no more fun.
