You can have it for the price of postage.
Thank you for the offer, however I will wait and see if it should go to somebody who wants to give the 760LD a new home :)

Sorry, been away from the internet in general for a while. I can post pics if anyone's still interested.

Hey, I got a x61t battery from a member here since mine didn't come with one. It's been running fine for about a month but the battery refuses to charge anymore.

If you expected to actually get 150mbps, you will never see file transfer rates of 150mb/s on N. Even with a 450mb/s connection you wouldn't see file transfers that fast from one computer to another. Not to mention you may very well be going through your ISP and not directly from device to device. B...

Hey everyone - I just picked up a 760LD in pretty great shape! I have two questions about it though. 1. What are the two ports on the left of the machine (top of this picture)?

You shouldn't need to worry about anything... it was only the 9280 that seemed to be picky about particular configurations.

It should also be mentioned that prices on the AR9380 cards suddenly shot up in price nearly $10, but have come back down (even from USA based sellers) about $5 from that price spike and can be talked down to about $15 shipped via "best offer" eBay.
