Man, I guess. I hope you have Aero (the graphics enhancement) turned off...
Getting something decent under $500 is very possible. I'd recommend, in addition to the site that Rock Monster has posted:
www.slickdeals.net
www.dealhack.com
www.buxr.com
And, http://reviews.cnet.com/laptops/?tag=TOCleftColumn.0 for laptop reviews, in case you wanted to see what other people thought of them.
You said also that you were looking at the Dell outlet. Keep doing that, you can get some great deals on refubished laptops that have the same warranties as brand new ones, as you're probably seeing.
I honestly don't know what company to choose, because I haven't dealt much with customer service with these companies. Back in the day, HP and Dell were fantastic. My finacee had some (read: huge) issues with an extended warranty he got for a HP laptop. Maybe some other people have tech support insights?

Everyday you reinvent yourself into a bigger cock-shite than ever. It's incredible. I don't know how you do it. I admire you.
I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part.
