redmed is looking for a stunningly cheap (like, $100 or $200) laptop to become basically a kiosk for her research project. It’s going to end up sitting on a lab bench most of the time, for lab rats to enter data. On occasion, it will be carried to a different location to have different research rats enter different data.
The software system is already in place, and it’s designed around being on a single computer rather than sharing information over some sort of network. Plus, it’s in MS Access. Wheeee.
If you wanted to pick up the worlds cheapest portable computer, still capable of running MS Office, where would you start?
