Cheap Laptop Wanted

I know it's a longshot but, I'm looking for a cheap laptop for use in the garage. It looks like I need to run an 'On Board Diagnostics' programme to fix my wretched Alfa and all the info I have gleaned points to either a very expensive Code reader or a much cheaper Link Lead and programme to run off a 'puter.
I'm not dragging this PC out into the wilderness that is my garage as it will never work again!!
Someone must have a crappy old Etchasketch that is taking up space???

I also need a new laptop for megajolt since I left a 300W halogen inspection rather too close to the old thinkpad...doh.

The what to what and when? Ah, just spotted the link.....

As I said on PPC - count me in depending on the date!

p.s. I saw Al at the Autosport show. I say I saw him - he was 10 feet away as he had a rowdy mob of people around him! I didn't see any JCs though so I didn't make the effort....
