I love this computer, however my job and hobbies are more completely fulfilled if I am on the cutting edge of technology. I'm looking to get a new computer that will be able to run Windows Vista better, so that I will be able to develop windows applications for Windows that are sure to be compatible with Vista. This laptop does run Windows Vista okay, but Aero (the Vista graphical engine) does not run on it. Other than this, It's about 3 years old, and is in perfect condition. There are hand prints on the resting area of both palms, but there is no damage to the device and it is in complete working order. I added the Wifi after I bought the device, which is why the signal is weak for it. The mini PCI wifi card I bought for it has room for 2 antennae, but to my knowledge, my laptop enclosure only has 1 running through it. A secondary antennae could probably be purchased and installed, but I just opted to use external (USB) device for Wifi, which would come with the laptop.

Asking price is $400.00 dollars -- no operating system. $490.00 with Windows XP Home Edition (OEM). (When I bought the system, it didn't come with an operating system at all. I added that separate.)  I am open to offers, however.
