My girlfriends grandparents would love to be able to keep in touch with friends via the internet but theres no way they can afford a pc of any kind. I offered a free low spec desktop but they live in a small house and can't fit a desktop so a laptop would be ideal.

Does anybody have an old laptop that they'd sell me? It only has to run msn messenger, access internet, email etc. I've tried local papers and ebay etc with no luck.
