Or you could go this route:
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProductDesc.asp?description=34-115-134&catalog=23&manufactory=BROWSE
add 256MB RAM
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproductdesc.asp?description=20-145-481&DEPA=1
total cost: $853.99
Although, your selection is probably superior in every respect 2.6 Athlon versus 2.6 Celeron, 40GB
vs. 30 GB.
You might also check out refurbed laptops if you're up to it. They have a few in your category and
price range.

Does anyone know where to get a good deal on a laptop? I need these specs or better: used or new,
2 GHz, 512MB ram, 20GB hd, and a price under $1000. I'm using this laptop for development of my
speech-controlled digital jukebox and its music management software suite. I don't need this
laptop to run linux, though I will be eventually porting this software to linux. I'll buy a new
laptop when I port to linux.
So far I have checked Newegg.com, Pricewatch, and ebay. This is the best deal I found on newegg:
