Theres not much you can get for that price. Thats about the price of an ok netbook.

Five hour battery life is a hard feat even with most new laptops. $250-300 can get you a used or refurbished Toshiba, but you'll only pull 2-3 hours on the battery life. You could always get a spare battery and swap them between classes.
