cheap old laptop

I guess there are really several things I want:

  Something to test on IE with

  A laptop to move around the house, or to other places, with.

  A backup computer for when this one goes down.

  A backup computer for when I can't figure out how to do something on
  LINUX.

For all but the fourth, a linux laptop that ran IE would be preferable
to a windows box, and I may be able to scrounge an old Windows desktop
box free for the Windows.

So yes, if you have a free or cheap Linux laptop that runs Crossover
Office, I'm interested.
