Suggestions for a laptop under $400 [View all]

I know one gets what one pays for but I am 75, and on Social Security.
Just need something to surf the net, listen to YouTube music videos, and post email.
I'd like something around a 14" screen.

No gaming, etc.
Not interested in a Chrome book (?).

Thanks
