See the local computer recyclers.
Preferably the ones who handle the government throw-outs.
Government departments, in order to boost their budget allocation, replace as
much of their stock as possible, each year, so some good deals are in the
works.
A good recycler checks everything out, will upgrade the size of drive and
amount of RAM, on request, and deliver on an economical deal with some form
of guarantee.
Off to one side, I have an ACER Travelmate I got in 2017 (2016 model) that
has been as solid as a rock since I bought it. Never missed a beat, costing
me $300 Australian.
It's how I get all my stuff.
Cheers!
