WTT: Laptop for Decent Desktop (and WTT: 2 HDS for 1)

Post by Optimus Prime »

Okay heres the deal. I got this laptop becuase i went out of town a couple of times, now that i am settled in one place i dont need this lappy and i want a full desktop w/out monitor or printer. Here are the specs for the Laptop. **********TRADED***********

Compusa Built
Screen- 13.3 XGA/TFT screen (Beautiful)
Processor- Celeron 333 (Not the fastest but will do for most applications)
Memory- 96 megs of Infenion PC100 ram
Hard drive- 6.4 gig Hitachi 4200rpm drive
Video card- ATI 4 meg Mobility chipset
Modem- Lucent 56k Winmodem (Does not work properly) Keep Reading
Sound card- ESS Maestro 2 half-duplex sound
Speakers- Onboard, Pretty decent for MP3's
Mouse- Synaptics Touchpad <--Noting else to say
Cd-Rom- 24X Toshiba Drive
Floppy- 1.44meg etc.... Nothing much
Slots- 2 PCMCIA slots for Modem or aything else
All Standard ports:
Parallel port
Serial Port
C-dock Port
2 USB Ports
PS-2 Port
and Infared port for linking to other laptops or Palm Pilots

Comes with Adapter, and Drivers, No manual
There is a Slight problem with the Modem that is built in. It works sometimes and other times it doesnt. It says cannot detect Dialtone. Well I will include a 3Com 56k+Lan PCMCIA card. It works perfectly and has dongles.

Other than that it has no other problems and it is in great condition.

Now i want to trade this for a IBM compat. PC. Feel free to email me some systems. I am not looking for anything in particular, but if any systems catch my eye i will let you know.

And i have 2, 15gig IBM 75GXP's. They are ATA100 and 7200 RPM, and are a matched set which i used in Raid 0. I want to trade them for a huge hard drive, 30GIG+ because the new mobo i got Asus A7M266 DDR mobo does not have onboard raid. Prefer IBM's but Maxtors will do, NO WESTERN DIGITAL HARD DRIVES :) . TY

Thanks
