I can further substantiate this by pointing to today's Woot:

http://computers.woot.com/offers/random-14-dual-core-windows-7-laptops

$149.99 for a refurbished, scratch & dent laptop with the following
specs:

* Laptop with a 14" Screen
* Intel Dual-Core Processor
* 802.11 b/g Wi-Fi
* 2GB of DDR2 Memory
* 80GB of Hard Drive Space
* DVD-ROM Drive capable of reading (but not writing) DVDs
* Windows 7 Home Premium 32-Bit Operating System

One of the laptops I'm selling is spoken for; one remains...
