    So...I got this in a trade awhile back and just now got it back up and running after not having a HD for awhile... ;)

    Here's some specs...

    Intel Core Duo @ 1.66ghz
    1 gig ram
    a brand new battery from Dell (replacement due to recall)
    DCRW/DVD drive
    Ethernet/Modem/Wireless
    High Def Audio
    160 gig HD with Windows XP Media Center 2005 preinstalled.

    Only catch is that it will need a new AC adapter soon. The one I got with the laptop got cut somehow and is held together with electrical tape. It works, but it makes me nervous. If it doesn't bother you...then no worries I guess. ;)

    I can get more specific specs if need be, but it's a great laptop and is nice and fast, but I just use my Mac 99% of the time and if I need a windows computer, I have a desktop. This will also come with a CD of the drivers I needed to use for the reinstall as well as an official Dell OS install disk. (Good luck getting one from Dell if you need one! This one took me weeks!)

    I'm asking $850. I'm open to looking at trades for bass gear, but I need the cash more, so cash is king...

    I'm gonna chip in here. I have the older model of this (two years old) and just got mom this model. If this has the True Color screen, these are UNBELIEVEABLE laptops. The newer ones are lighter than the one I own, and the screen is fantastic.

    For anyone seeking a laptop, I couldn't recommend this more having owned two now.

    It has a mobile intel 945GM Express Chipset which is an intigrated graphics chipset that uses shared memory. I think. ;)

    Bummer, well I will ask him but I think he wanted something that was ATI/nVidia... Best of luck with the sale if you do not hear back from me.

    Peace,
