Ask HN: Inexpensive windows machine for tinkering

2 pointsnazz8y ago2 comments

I am looking for a lightweight, inexpensive ($50-$170) Windows laptop that I can use for programming and tinkering with microprocessors. I don't plan to install any games or intense applications. Any recommendations?

Buy a used one on Newegg, great value if you shop right. HP business laptops are really good. Spent most of their time on a desk, lightly used.
