Cheap laptop? Very bad idea. Laptops are the ultimate expression of the "you get what you pay for" maxim. Cheap laptop = cheap keyboard, cheap touch pad, cheap components, low memory, small slow HD... You'll regret it. I think the lowest you should go is $1,800/w1800000.
Second hand, I noticed the top computer floor at Technomart has a couple used laptop places. That Seoul English classified ad magazine you sometimes see laptops for sale.
Check the sticky post above for tips on buying a laptop in Seoul. |

Thanx for the links guys. I've seen it mentioned on here that Youngsan in Seoul is a good place to pick up a laptop/PC. Is this true?? Any stores in particular you could point me towards?
Thanks again. |

Yongsan is the place to go to put together a desktop system, but if you're on a budget and you want to buy a laptop locally, I doubt you'll do any better than the million won Averatec model at eMart.
BTW, if you want more memory, it's easy to add. |
