Ok, if you want to play 1080p on it, you must make sure that the screen can acutally support it. If it is a beater laptop, you must think that the machine will be carried around, but when you actually have to work with it, the keyboard will not be too small nor the screen too restrictive.
As a cyclist weight is my concern, so is size, but getting a secondhand laptop I would opt for one that has a) high screen b) trackpoint c) easy enough to find parts.
The options may seem limitless, but I think that one is best to look at Thinkpads, Dell Business ( Precision ) some HPs.
Unfortunately, the trackpoint is not the same from one system to another. In fact the Dell trackpoint does not have a middle button, so no scroll or tab close in your browser. The middle button can be emulated via the touchpad using both buttons!
