Many websites or school programs offer free laptops.

Nothing in life is free or so you may have heard. However, there are ways to obtain a laptop computer for no money when attempting to get your General Educational Development (GED). While you may not be able to take your GED test online as of 2010, you can still use a laptop computer to help you prepare for the test. GED study guides and practice tests are available online for your convenience.

Step 2

Talk with your school guidance counselor or teacher to see if you school has any laptop computers not in use.
