I suggest going to Slickdeals dot net and in the search box select titles only and search for something like laptop. Then click on the "by rating" on the left column, I'd say one thumb up + is generally good. It's a deal site covering sales at stores, posted by real people, and discussion about the deal as well, so you can get an idea if it's a good deal or product.
Some don't have HDMI, some don't have DVD drives. I've seen some regular laptops less than $220 before tax. I see one at $230 now, Toshiba at Best Buy C55-B5202, reviews aren't super great and it's not the fastest, but it would work. Does not have DVD but you could get a cheap external USB. May be better choices under $300 but have not looked for a while/beyond seeing this one. Something that says Core i3 would be better than a Celeron for processor. Avoid something that says AMD for processor unless you check first (graphics AMD are ok), some AMD processors are VERY slow (some are just fine), Intel is generally preferable, but it depends. 4GB ram +. They also make 8" to 11.6" tablets that run full Windows, some can be found for less than $200. You can add a bluetooth keyboard, or usb with an adapter cable, some have a keyboard dock option. Some may have HDMI or a video out but are generally in the more expensive models.
Classic Shell is one of the things you can install to make it look more like Windows 7, installs very quickly. Wouldn't worry about 8 though, it's not that bad.
If you want a virus free OS you can install Linux for free (and you can try it out without installing it or changing your system at all). It's not that hard to use, very easy to install, it's stable. It's all I use personally for over 8 years and I have elderly people, relatives, neighbors, etc. on it for years. People trash it online but it's not bad at all and works with what you have, learning curve is certainly no more than going to a Mac. BUT, Windows is JUST FINE for most people, no reason to try anything else if you don't want. Macs are just fine, the hardware may be more comparable to those of higher end laptops, but the stuff inside is the same brand stuff as regular PCs, manufactured by the same companies, etc.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
