I'd suggest watching Ebay, especially anything remaining under transferablewarranty. My own experience is that IBM thinkpads have incredible service, well worth the money for extended warranty.
If your son is going to college, mac has some great student offers (the lowest is around 900$ though, over your limit).
The biggest warning I received when bringing a laptop to college was that under no circumstances would it be replaced by my parents. I always keep a very watchful eye on it.

PS. I apologize for typo's, slightly intoxicated at the moment.
