Should my parents buy a new laptop?

we have people coming to stay with us [ aunts and cousins] for like a real long time( almost a year or maybe even more) and we were thinking of buying a laptop for the 3 kids who are coming to use because our PC desktop at home broke last year. the keybaord and monitor operate fine but we don't have a hardrive for it and they cost the same price if not more of a laptop. Circuit city has a laptop from HP that is only $400 special sale for thanksgiving. Do you think they should get it now when the price is so low?

1. for sure =]
2. 400 dollars is a good deal for a laptop, and I doubt it will be slow as that particular one has a dual core processor. But, you mentioned kids.. And for younger people Id suggest you buy a PC for around the same price. With a laptop, its so easy to drop it or break something. But a PC is more stable on the floor or table, with only the keyboard and mouse to worry about. Laptops and PCs go for around the same price these days with PCs being a little cheaper. If you already have a monitor that you can use, that would be perfect.
