$29.98 Laptop Computer

3865xxl

"Built–in monitor, keyboard, speakers, plus preloaded programs with 4 main modes of play, 13 basic games and activities."

Tell us more.

"Even has advanced keyboard shortcuts and memory!"

Closes up nicely in its own travel case.

Runs on 3 AA batteries (not included).

$29.98 here.

The deluxe model costs $10 more: the only thing different is the AC adapter that's included.

Before you get all bent out of shape about this being a joke, think for a moment about what you're getting.

I mean, with an instructional book you could teach yourself to type with this device.

And I'll bet an enterprising hacker could make quite a bit more out of this machine than its initial presentation.

I bought my five-year-old son one a while ago. He loved it. (It's now almost dead, scratched up, at the bottom of the closet since his grandfather got him a "real" computer recently for his room.) I'm cheap, though - he didn't get the deluxe model.
