Not sure this is the right forum but...I need to purchase a laptop for my high school age daughter, who will be taking a college course/living away for the summer. I don't want to spend a ton of money as she will likely need a different laptop when she graduates from HS next summer, based on the college or her choice requirements.
My goal is something that has wifi capability and can run school related productivity, such as MS office. Once she is done with the 5-week course, this laptop would become my wife's. She is a low end user...primarily using it for internet, email, perhaps ebay listing etc. She is not a gamer or heavy music/video user.
I have seen new Dells and HP's at around $450-$500. I have seen some off brands for about $100 less.
Is there such thing as dependable used laptops or laptop rentals??
Thanks in advance for any help.
