I'm trying to find a cheap laptop for my g/f's mom (a novice computer user), and I'm eyeing a Thinkpad R52 or similar T-series from ebay (reliability is key). However, my R52 has been exclusively used as a DVR for OTA HD broadcasts for the past couple of years, so I have no clue if it's adequate for modern daily internet use and Skyping. I could test all of this out, but with finals coming up at school, I am hoping one or more of you might have first hand experience with this to save me some time. (Sorry if this is some kind of repost, but I searched here and over at hardforum and couldn't find anything recent.)
Thanks for any advice!
