Housing is expensive in the bay area…Nationwide, housing has dropped %16, but in san francisco, its only dropped %2. So what does that mean? Maybe we gotta pay these nasty house prices even though the market is crap right now. Genese and I have just begun our search for a home, as this blip of a window of an opportunity may be too good to pass up. Just recently, we went down to LA and looked at some condos selling for $640,000. The same condo now is down to $450,000.

Weve gotten a quick preapproval for a home loan, and were gonna look around the South San Francisco area for pre-foreclosures…Hopefully with these pre-foreclosures, we will get about 20%-40% off the market value for the house, and were looking for something in the range of $500k-$600k. But we will see. Wish us luck!

They have it down to $150. You get a celeron 1.5GHz, 256MB DDR RAM (Upgradeable to 1GB), 40GB HD, CD/DVD-ROM, 14in LCD, Integrated Sound with SPDIF Out, 802.11G WIFI,  1 PCMCIA, 3 USB, Onboard 10/100Base-Tx, Loaded with Fedora Linux. Free shipping too.

Not bad at all. Its small and light. This is way better than my sony vaio slim laptop that I sold for 325 bucks. I just bought one to replace my sony vaio p3 850MHz. Only down side is the shipping time. 4-6 weeks?

Concerned about fraud? Check out the response from the merchant company responsible for handling the credit card transactions for the laptop.
