I've been using a IBM Thinkpad T21 here with great luck. It has
supported components and is speedy enough to play DVDs with its 8mb S3
Savage video card. I run debian unstable on it with a 2.4.17 kernel in
both wired and wireless.
You can find them at ubid I believe (or they were there at least) for
under your cost point.
BTW, my T21 has a 800mhz PIII, 256mb of memory, and a 20g ibm hard disk
drive. Memory for the T21s is pretty cheap these days. I bought a
256mb memory module for under $75.
