My son had nearly $200 in birthday money burning a hole in his pocket.

He really, really wanted a laptop computer and asked me to find him the best computer he could afford.  So this morning I accepted the mission and spent about 2 hours on Ebay virtual window shopping.  I finally found the best bang for the buck and fired up my trusty sniper program Auction Sentry.

I put in my sniper bid and chewed my nails during the closing minutes.  Guess what? I won a Dell Latitude D610 with all the trimmings!

Here’s a link to the auction listing.
