Best Cheap Laptop For Browsing?

[sorryboi]

Greetings. I already have a desktop PC which is only a yard or few away from my bed. I was thinking of getting a very cheap laptop so I can watch videos/browse the internet and other basic things like that in the comfort my bed. I doubt I will be gaming as I can't game in my bed. I just always thought it'd be cool to have a portable computer that I can take with me. I do not have a lot of money since I don't make a very good allowance. About which price point and specs should be enough for these needs? I am assuming a cheap 3rd gen i3 and something like 4GB DDR3 RAM? I am thinking of buying these laptops on retailers like Best Buy and Walmart because I don't like shipping things back. Screen size doesn't matter too much as long as it isn't too small or way too big.
Thanks.

The following refurbished HP Probook 6450b laptop is the least expensive laptop with a core i3 CPU for $150 from Walmart. It has a 1st generation Core i3 CPU which I assume is the i3-370m.

If you want something better for less, then you probably have to visit local pawn stores to see what they might have that suits your needs.

You'd be better off with a good tablet...

Another thing you might consider is a 8 to 10 inch Android tablet. These are perfect for bed use. I'd recommend a 10 in screen and a minimum of 16GB storage. Walmart has a selection and they're not expensive, $80 to about $200.

Definately do not have $150. I'm also definately not feeling a tablet.
Don't see why I would need a tablet over a Windows (not android) Laptop. Don't really see any cons on the laptop idea.
I also find the laptop 16.5x more aesthetic.

ChromeBook then, just a surfer...

I don't know a Chromebook vs windows laptop. But I still feel like windows would be better and i dont think there are any $100 chromebooks.

You can probably pick something up on Ebay with a 2nd-3rd gen i5, or sometimes even a 4th gen i3u/i5u. Something like that and a cheap 120 gig SSD would make a quick Interweb surfer.

Once again, looking for a local retailer.

Welp... I'd pass on this whole thread then. Thought I would be able to find something for < $80. Must've had the wrong state of mind.
