$300 Notebooks: Where to Buy the Best $300 Notebook Computers

New $300 notebooks are available for purchase in today's computer market but they come with 7 inch screens and a hard drive capacity of just 2 GB. If you want a new full-sized notebook computer with at least an 80 GB hard drive then you're going to have to increase your budget to at least $399. Ebay and some other computer auctions are the only places I can think of where you could find $300 notebook computers. Keep in mind that $300 notebooks sold on auction sites are probably going to be used with the actual condition dependent upon the seller and whether any recertification or refurbishment takes place prior to shipment.

In case you didn't know, there are new desktop computers on the market that start at $199 and are suitable for surfing the internet safely, receiving and sending email, listening to and burning CDs, watching DVDs, and downloading or saving a reasonable amount of files. The cheapest notebooks typically go for $399 although Asus does produce
the 7 inch miniature model that starts at $300(remember it only has a 2 GB hard drive). If you want the cheapest notebook possible plus a secure connection to the internet then I recommend checking out the options detailed further below and buying either a $399 full-sized new notebook, a $300 mini Asus notebook, or a $199 new or refurbished desktop computer. The bottom line is that new $300 notebooks are widely available but they are small and are primarily useful for surfing the web and checking or sending email. The minimal hard drive storage capacity limits the amount of productivity work that can be performed with the mini Asus notebook. If you're open to purchasing a desktop instead of a notebook computer or if you can boost your budget to $399, then you can easily find yourself a brand new regular-sized notebook or a new desktop that includes the features and specifications required to get online and browse the internet safely and with speed. Here are four options worth checking out to find the best $300 notebooks:

Best $300 notebooks at Newegg - The Newegg notebook store almost always has the mini Asus notebooks in stock starting at $300 along with at least one standard-size new notebook computer priced at $399 and more notebooks priced at $499. Newegg often carries a new $199 Everex desktop computer as well. Newegg is a notebook, desktop, and electronics store all in one that stocks more than 400 notebook models at any one time. Once at the Newegg site you can view the best $300 notebooks or narrow your new notebook search via the left-hand navigation menu by discount items, free shipping, top sellers, recertified, price, brand, CPU type, screen size, or hard drive capacity. You can also use the "Sort By" drop-down box to rank the notebooks by lowest price, highest price, best rating, most reviews, or best match.

Best $300 notebook computers at TigerDirect - The TigerDirect notebook store typically carries the best $300 notebooks from Asus and usually has one or more standard-size refurbished notebooks priced near $399. TigerDirect also always has ten to twenty refurbished desktop computers priced from $160 to $200. TigerDirect has over 200 notebook models to choose from and includes simple navigational links along the left-hand side of their pages. Once at the TigerDirect site you can peruse the best $300 notebook computers or use the "Shop By Brand" drop-down box to select a specific notebook manufacturer or you can use the "Sorted by" drop-down box to sort the inventory by featured notebooks, lowest price, highest price, most popular, or customer rating. You can also start a new notebook search via the left-hand navigation menu by screen size, AMD notebooks, Intel notebooks, thin/light notebooks, widescreen notebooks, tablet notebooks, and Vista/XP notebooks.

Walmart notebook computers - The Walmart notebook store frequently has one or more new notebook computers priced just under $400. I have seen new notebooks go for as little as $349 at Walmart which also usually stocks a new $199 Everex desktop computer. Once at the Walmart site you can use the "Sort by" drop-down box to rank the notebooks in order according to lowest price, highest price, top sellers, top rated notebooks, or newest notebooks. You can also use the additional drop-down boxes to specify various features including brand, processor, system RAM, screen size, price range, and color.

Dell Outlet refurbished desktops - You won't find the best $300 notebooks at Dell, but you can often purchase a refurbished Dell desktop computer for close to or just under $200. More refurbished Dell desktops become available closer to the $300 level. It's worth checking out if you're open to buying a desktop instead of a notebook. Once at the Dell Outlet Store use the drop-down box on the left-hand side of the page to go directly to the "Inspiron" desktops stockroom. Then use the various drop-down boxes to narrow your search further or click on the "Price" column to sort the Dell desktop deals from lowest to highest price.

New $300 notebooks are designed for browsing the internet, checking and sending email, and a minimal amount of downloading or file saving. The lowest-priced new and refurbished regular-sized notebooks with at least 80 GB hard drive space offer the latest word processor and spreadsheet capabilities and can be found at the major online computer stores listed above.
