My 10 year old is asking for a laptop. I don't need fancy, but I don't want to cook dinner before it loads up. She will probably use it for book reports so a word processor or office suite might be nice,internet surfing , and hope fully under $500.00 and even better closer to $200-300

Any ideas?

BLACK FRIDAY sale
