Title: FS: [NY] Duo Core 2 Laptop - great for barcades! * Price Reduced *
Post by: Havok on August 16, 2014, 08:02:09 pm
HP Compaq 6910p Laptop

Intel Core 2 Duo
Windows Vista Business w/SP2
ATI Mobility Radeon X2300
120GB Hard Drive
2GB RAM
Intel Wireless


System fully checked, verified 100% working and cleaned. Hard drive wiped and verified no bad sectors with chkdsk. Fresh Windows Vista Business Operating System with Service Pack 2 installed and activated with product key on hard drive cover. Microsoft Security Essentials installed as well.

Battery works, however not guaranteed. I did use it for about 30 minutes while testing until it gave out.

Note: This is just a straight CD build - you should run Windows Update as soon as you receive this to insure you are fully patched.

A genuine HP brand 90 watt AC adapter is not pictured, but included.

I have multiples, so let me know if you would like more than one.

Asking $100 shipped to the US; will come in an HP laptop box, so it is packed appropriately.

I'm upstate, so I'd have to ship it out. I do have another one, just need to check the drive before I ship. To answer the question about the screen, it's 14.1" diagonal.

Bump! Looks like I have a few more. Makes a great gift for Christmas. Since most people put Windows 7 on these, let me know if you just want a blank drive included, or I can load Vista on it if you prefer.

It's never been a trap.  Cash in hand when the answer is "yes."

Seriously? That game is too new. I doubt a Core 2 Duo could handle it. Buy yourself an i7, you'll be happier.

I figure it's worth about $100 to me to be able to play that game.  I've been in this hobby a long time... it'll get to the price point I want.  Some day.

Can your PCB browse the internet and play Cindy Crawford workout videos?

I should be getting that power supply today on that machine I got from Arrow Direct. If it works, after I give mouf kisses, I'll test Gauntlet Legends.

They're hilariously poor instructional videos, and I remember all the controversy about them being too dangerous for regular people to emulate.  Does your copy have the warning sticker slapped on it?
