The display is sort of crappy, but as long as the kids aren't pixel counters, it looks decent for a sub-$500 laptop. -- nm - Shaun Nov 21, 06:43 7
- see below for the DELL one, with EBates and discounts it is around $100 cheaper all told (each)... -- nm* - Beaker Nov 21, 06:44 6

        Minecraft works just fine on our 2009 white MacBook so I'd imagine any new laptop would be fine. - spamlet Nov 21, 07:06
        
        Likely not. The Dell should be fine. -- nm - Shaun Nov 21, 07:03
