Check it out.

Its about 9 months old. Used mainly for programming and school work while away from home (ie. not very often)

Figured I'd offer it up to people I "know" before throwing it on ebay.
I'm selling it because my company CEO is purchasing a laptop for me so I no longer need this one.

Very sweet and powerful. It only makes me wonder about the new one!

New one will most likely be a centrino with less power. I mainly need it for administering some fiber switches that arent near any other computers throughout our factory.

This one doesnt have a standard COM port on it so administering said switches would be tough

Well i'm not asking for the retail

Offer whatever you are willing/able to spend on it.

I think i didn't see the "retail" word

But anyway, I've got very few euros to spend, unfortunately, less than what you could get for it on ebay

Post by **Polo** » Sat Dec 03, 2005 5:13 pm

Well, I think I could give about 200 Euros (which is a little bit more than thefool :lol)

Very nice looking hardware specs and I like the look of it. Guess I can jump in with a bid of 2000 norwegian kroners. Not as high as dagcrack but anyways

Im on an HP laptop and can tell you from experience, HP makes the bad laptops, and definately worse laptop batteries. I have a zd7166cl. The advertised life span for the batteries, just leaving the lap top turned on, is 2 hours. Battery life goes down dramatically (to 20 minutes) near the end of the first year.

They do make nice desktop replacements, but as laptop, they are sorely lacking.

Sorry for the bad news. But heck, I'll give you a few hundred for it .. thats about all it's worth near the end of the first year
