I gave away my last three recently.  On the Freecycle list. Have seen
some offers, and some wanteds for laptops.

Also, some very inexpensive laptops are usually in store, not listed on
the web sites, of the smaller vendors in the local area.  I am about 35
miles North of Kissimmee and the local stores here are
http://cheaptronicsfdepot.com  and Laptop Express.

Have seen older laptops there in the range of $95 to $129 on the shelf.

Give them a ring.
