Looking for cheap laptops - questions for recorders

I'm looking for a couple of cheap laptops to use for recording/streaming matches. They likely will not be used for anything else. What I would like is at least 4GB RAM, at least 2GHz processor, at least two USB2.0, and at least 120GB HD. Nice to haves are USB 3.0, 15-16 inch, Windows 7 or higher, larger HD, 8GM RAM, under 6 pounds. I don't care about WiFi or network connection, though I do need at least one machine with an Ethernet port. Battery life is not a concern, as long as they don't immediately shut down if you pull the power cord out. Looking to pay under $100 each.

If you have such a machine, please contact me. I'd rather buy from someone I know than play eBay roulette.

Ben and others who do a lot of recording: Any advice around these specs? I'm looking to control two cameras with each machine, running Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder 3.2. Primarily, I'm just recording, but I'd like to use one of them for streaming, too. I've only used more powerful machines, so mainly interested in your take on whether I'm asking for more than I need much? Not enough?
