If anybody is interested, I'm selling my current laptop. It's pretty much a Frankenstein build, I've replaced and/or upgraded most of it since I was given it as an 18th birthday present about 1 and 3/4 years ago.
It's working perfectly, other than a few non-essential screws missing from the bottom (these were lost after a motherboard swap). Reason I'm selling is that the graphics chip is too old to run Windows Vista with all of the nice effects. It runs the base Vista operating system no sweat, just not the Aero interface.
Spec is below, price is £450 or a very close offer.
Raw Spec
- Dell Inspiron 6000 Base Model
- Intel Pentium M 1.5Ghz Processor
- 1280Mb RAM (1 x 1Gb, 1 x 256Mb)
- 15.4" Widescreen
- 80Gb Hard Drive
- Windows XP Home Pre-installed
- Integrated Graphics
- Spare battery included
- Also includes power adapter
- Features media buttons on the front (Mute, Sound Up/Down, Play/Pause (not working), Previous, Next and Stop) - very useful when listening to music
Upgrades & Replacements
- Motherboard replaced September 2005
- Screen replaced April 2006
- Hard Drive upgraded (from 40Gb to 80Gb) November 2006
- Keyboard replaced December 2006
- RAM upgraded (1Gb stick added) March 2007
PM me or email me at craig@cwatson.org if you're interested
// Edit: I should probably mention that all of the upgrades have been done by me, and I've worked previously as a network systems tech, so I know what I'm doing

That's a nice laptop for the price. I dont want a laptop, but I just thought I'd post this because I'm drunk. My laptop is broken. I opened it up to try and fix it but I couldn't even put it back together, so I threw it in the bin.

Thanks.
