Does they sell low spec laptops at all?

I really don't need a >1ghz processor. But all laptops seem to come with massive processors

That practice of only selling computers above a certain price level seems to still hold true unfortunately (€1000).

Is it worth the effort trying to track down a new laptop for ~€600 - €700?

well, i got a 1.7GHz laptop from Dell USA for about e650. (They only ship to US residents though, so an american friend/relation is a must)

They do used and refurbished laptops at a good price, but the problem with that is that no one ever guarantees the battery, and batteries can be in terrible condition, and replacing them is expensive

That'd be perfick!
New or previously owned?
Are they in stock?

to be honest (why was the ancronym of this filtered?) they are a mix of new and SH. IBM over manufacture quite a bit, but wont tell us which units are unused or has been out in the field!

ATM im low on the €590 units, but more are on order.

drop in, have a look and ask for James
