Get a refurbished Acer C710 Chromebook for $139.99
A few quick housekeeping notes. First, several readers have asked about RSS. You can add (or restore) me to your reader with this spiffy new Cheapskate RSS feed.
Second, I know many of you like to navigate to this page by way of the CNET front door (i.e. home page), an option that's no longer available. Good news: It will be again, though I'm not sure when. In the meantime, you can always bookmark this page, or subscribe to the Cheapskate newsletter.
Speaking of which, all newsletters are now managed within your CNET profile, so just head there, click the My Subscriptions tab, and scroll down until you find the Cheapskate. One click and you're good to go!
On to business. If you're looking for a simple "around the house" PC, a Chromebook might be a good way to go. Though not particularly powerful, these Google-powered laptops afford all the basics: e-mail, Web, word processing, and so on -- but without the hassles (and occasional horrors) of Windows.
What's more, last year's models are this year's sweet deals: For a limited time, Acer (via Amazon) has the refurbished Acer C710-2834 Chromebook for $139.99 shipped. Price new: $199.
Spec-wise, the C710 might seem a little anemic: Intel Celeron processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of storage (though it's speedy solid-state storage), and an 11.6-inch display.
On a Windows system, those specs would spell S-L-O-W-P-O-K-E. But Chromebooks run Google's Chrome OS, which requires significantly less horsepower. It boots in seconds, runs virus-free, and stores most everything in the cloud (hence the limited onboard storage).
In other words, it's probably great for around the house. So is a tablet, sure, but here you're getting a keyboard, a bigger screen, and even some expandability via USB and HDMI ports.
CNET hasn't reviewed this exact configuration, but did review the very similar C710-2457 (which has a slower 1.1GHz processor to this one's 1.5GHz). Verdict: cheap construction, limited battery life, and mediocre display and speakers. But that was based on a $199 price tag and the premise of a more "primary" PC. At $139, this is a beater, something to keep in the kitchen, give to the kids, or even offer up to the grandparents for hassle-free e-mail and Web browsing.
The one caveat: because this is refurbished, it comes with a 90-day warranty. If you can live with that, this is a mighty tempting deal. Your thoughts?
Bonus deal: Calling all Mac users! "Free" doesn't really appear in the Mac vernacular, but it does today: StackSocial's Mac Freebie Bundle 3.0 comes with seven totally free Mac apps that have a combined value of $119. Strings attached: zero. (Well, you do have to register for a StackSocial account, which means receiving the occasional marketing e-mail. Big whoop, IMHO.)
Bonus deal No. 2: I have a weird fondness for wallet-friendly gadgets. Like this one: While supplies last, Groupon has the Wallet Ninja Multitool for $9.99, plus $2.99 for shipping. This nifty steel card has 16 different functions, including bottle opener, hex wrench, and smartphone stand! Best of all, it's TSA-approved.
