im looking for a laptop that can handle AIM, MSN Messenger, Internet Explorer, windows 2000 pro (XP would be better), and microsoft office XP. Not for games, major programs, or anything of that sort, here are the specs that i would like:

CPU- AMD 1200+ or Celeron 800Mhz or Pentium 600Mhz or more
RAM- 128MB (max 256MB) or more
Hard Drive- 20GB or more
Drives- CD-ROM or better
Ports- USB, LAN
Accessories: Wireless card prefered

I would like to spend under $250 if possible. If you have one your selling or know a good place to get one, please let me know. (and eBay is not an option)
 
If I end up getting this new laptop like I hope I may be selling mine.
Compaq Armada E500
833Mhz PIII (or 800, not sure)
258Mb ram PC133(had 512 but 1 stick died)
DVD drive
11Gb HDD
Wireless card
14" screen (I think, haven't measured yet)
LAN, Modem, 1 USB 1.1 port, Parallel, VGA, Serial, docking port.
Some wear, and slight broken casing by exhaust port (from me banging it around, doesn't hinder performance)
All parts work (even internal fan :O ) except battery, which won't hold a charge (damn old ass battery)
Comes with adapter.
 
When you sell yours Lord AnthraX and IF geoff dosn't take it(He gets first choice of corse since, well its his thread)can you hit me up a PM? I could use one for school just for storing documents and stuff.
 
i ordered a network card on newegg today, so if it works and ican get online with it, i probably wont need theone you might be selling, so you can sell it to flame.

Just out of curiosity, how much would you sell it for?
 
No idea. I paid a good amount back in the day (def. not worth that now). I'd guess about 200$ :confused:
