Can a laptop get more cheaper than $197? Well, it can but then it won't have an Intel processor running under its hood. And may that is one thing that makes this laptop a wonderful buy for all those who are looking for a budget computer for basic computing. The cheapest laptop is basically an HP machine powered by an Intel Celeron processor. What's more, it features 2GB of memory and 160GB hard drive. A wonderful notebook at this price-tag.

This machine is an addition to Best Buy's cheap laptop computers line up. It joins Acer's $249 laptop which was announced sometime ago.

The $197 HP laptop would be available in-store beginning Friday, Nov. 27.
