Help ..need 2 laptops!

[Tooth Fairy]

Our teenage kids already have desktops of their own but want a laptop to take to school and grandmas. Just need it to be able to run excel..powerpoint. Hold some photos. webcam & mic.They are not gamers so thats not an issue.How cheap can we go? Want to save for a really nice one when they go to college in a couple of years.Would like to spend $300 or less each. Is this even possible?

Looks like Walmart on BF is going to have a couple. One for $198 and another for $248.

TIA

You can go pretty cheap if that is what they will be using it for. Heck, a Netbook would handle that (mine does). $300 or less is more then possible.
