FS: Tiny Vaio ultraportable

[Bibin]

I have this little Vaio VGN-TX651p. From what I understand it was ludicrously expensive at launch (around the same time as the T4x series... it has the same chipset as the T43). It's a nice little centrino deal, with a fantastic 1280x768 11" LCD and a battery I just bought a few weeks ago that gets a nice 5-6 hours on medium brightness with wireless on. It even has an optical drive! It comes with a compatible charger.

It has a few scuffs, but nothing major. The LCD is very thin but unfortunately the side effect is that it isn't super durable. The previous owner must have really hated this laptop - there is a slight light area towards the centre that is vaguely in the shape of the embossed Vaio logo, and a dark spot towards the middle-bottom of the display. The LCD bezel has a minor cosmetic crack and the hinge plug end thing on the right side is missing. All cosmetic, and all non-serious. I've taken pictures of all of them.

These things tend to be pretty pricy, but considering the LCD is not perfect I'd sell it for a solid $150. If you have questions or want to negotiate what you think is a better price, just send a PM.

Bumped. An eBay auction fell through and this machine is for sale for only $150 now.
