$249 Laptops: Learn About 249 Dollar Laptop Computers

$249 laptops can be found but the most of them are only useful for typing and saving basic documents. If you want to get online and browse the internet safely with speed then you'll need to bump up your laptop budget to at least $299. Ebay and similar computer auctions are the only places I can think of where you could find 249 dollar laptop computers. Keep in mind that $249 laptops are old, used, discontinued computers that usually contain outdated parts.

There are brand new desktop computers available that start at $199 and are more than suitable for browsing the internet safely and with speed, receiving and sending email, listening to and burning CDs, watching DVDs, and downloading or saving a reasonable amount of files. The cheapest laptops usually go for $399 although Asus does produce a 7 inch model that starts at $299(only has 2 GB hard drive space). If you desire the cheapest PC possible and want a secure online connection then I recommend checking out the options posted
further below and purchasing either a new $399 full-size laptop, a $299 mini Asus laptop, or a new or refurbished $199 to $249 desktop computer. The bottom line is that $249 laptops can be found but they are old and are only useful for typing and saving basic documents. If you can boost your budget to the $299 to $399 price range, then you can buy a modern laptop that includes the features and functionality necessary to browse the internet safely and with speed. Here are four options worth checking out:

Newegg - Typically has the mini Asus laptops in stock starting at $299. Usually has at least one new laptop priced at $399 with more laptop computers priced from $449 to $499. Often has a new $199 Everex desktop computer in stock.

TigerDirect - Usually has the mini Asus laptops in stock ranging from $299 to $399. Frequently has one or more wireless refurbished laptops priced near $399. Always has ten to twenty refurbished desktop computers priced from $160 to $200.

Walmart - Almost always has one or more new laptop computers priced just under $400. I have seen new laptops go for as little as $349 at Walmart which also usually stocks a new $199 Everex desktop computer.

Dell - You won't find $249 laptops at Dell, but you can almost always buy a refurbished Dell desktop computer for $249 or even slightly under $200. It's worth checking out if you're open to purchasing a desktop instead of a laptop. Once at the Dell Outlet Store use the drop-down box on the left-hand side of the page to go directly to the "Inspiron" desktops stockroom. Then use the various drop-down boxes to narrow your search further or click on the "Price" column to sort the Dell desktop computer deals from lowest to highest price.

$249 laptops are often used for parts but can also be used for basic productivity projects that don't require an internet connection. The cheapest new and refurbished laptops found at major online stores offer the latest word processor and spreadsheet capabilities plus the ability to surf the internet with speed on a secure connection.
