Looking into getting a cheap laptop to run my Digital 7 box and possibly an EFI system.

Anybody have any places to go or stay away from?

Thanks,Aaron

I don't know how much you want to spent but dell has an outlet store that sells all refurbished items.

www.dell.com/outlet

usually you can find some pretty good deals.

I have a friend who runs the Milw PC store down in Kenosha that might be able to help you out. Do you know what you need as far as system requirements...???

if your requiring a serial port... better double check the laptop has one. Alot dont now a days and the USB to Serials adapters can be flaky

Ebay has thousands of them for cheap.........I bought one for $75.00 to run my Megasquirt. You don't need a very powerfull one for car applications, as far as I know.

True that. My first adapter didn't have the modem eliminator in it and that was why It couldn't communicate
