Red face Cheap $300-400 laptop

Hey I am wondering if there are laptops for around
300-400 dollars...

All it has to really do is run the internet, this is going to be for my mom.
That is basically all it needs to do...she's computer retarted.

here's the cheapest one on newegg..

Look out for weekly ads, sometimes there are cheap laptops. But if you live in the US, you just missed black friday, which is usually the biggest sale of the year.
