Needs a little work!!This is an AWESOME base to work with as it is fully functional in my testing..and you can actually use it as is, but would reccomend at least fixing the hinge problem
Specs:
1.6GHZ Intel Centrino
512MB DDR
12GB HD (old one was broke so thew this in there to test an xp install)
DVD-RW/CD-RW combo drive
14" LCD glass type display (very clean VERY nice)
Special edition coating..very sleek smooth and sexy.
Fully working battery
Power adapter
XP Pro COA!
Well this puppy was gonna be thrown in the garbage so I decided to disect it to see what was going on with it.
It appears it was dropped upon inspection, but suffered little damage! Exterior is a nice shiney very shiney like glossy finish in a dark burgondy (sp?) color...looks like a car exterior freshly waxed. Only a couple barely noticble wear and tear marks.
Hard drive was shot and the caddy/adapter seems to have had a corner plastic piece chipped off, but I installed a 12GB laptop HD I had lying around and it installed XP Pro and booted/operated with no problems.
The right monitor hinge for sure broke. I have the piece that broke off. It still stays up when you open it just fine and closes ok. You can feel the hinge moving up and down though and making the case a little squeeky.
If I had time I would actually fix this for myself and keep it! It is very nice. Dont know what to ask for it all..sooo...
