You should be able to get a Thinkpad T60 for under a hundred bucks.
It'll only have a Core Duo and 2 gig ram but that should be plenty for
non-gui use.
Great deals to be had in off-lease Thinkpads and Latitudes.
Spend a half hour on eBay and you'll find just the one you want from a
source with good reputation.
Or Amazon if you want to spend an extra $20.
Best regards, Bob
