If you want cheap Pentium or PII stuff, look for laptops with TFT screens. There's plenty of them out there that barely get any bids at all, and you can pick them up dirt cheap. I got a dual-scan IBM Thinkpad 380E for £15 that literally needed a 99p CMOS battery and a Windows installation, that was it - it was complete bar the fact it was never specced with a CD drive. I think my Thinkpad 600 was £12 originally, and that just needed a couple of keyboard keys, a charger and a CMOS battery - it even came with Windows still installed. Granted, you're not going to get 3D accelerators in these older laptops.. but those with TFTs are still good ways to play 2D games, as long as you can live with the sometimes patchy Soundblaster support. And these prices include P&P, and are eBay prices...
