PCs for People is a good bet for someone down on their luck or with some kinds of welfare support. http://www.pcsforpeople.com They have options ranging from cheap to free, and are likely to have newer gear than many other sources. Also, they provide the machines all set up and ready to go.. maybe with a support guarantee too.

Anyone have an older laptop they upgraded from that's sitting on a shelf? I'm looking for a laptop to give a family member who's a bit down on their luck. Expected use is light internet with some video, word processing, etc. I do plan to hit up TC FreeGeek as well. Just thought I'd hit up the list members and see what's locally available before hitting ebay and the likes.
