ISSUES:

The machine is in presentable physical condition, but has a tendency of shutting off on its own, without any rhyme or reason, or seemingly detectable logic behind the shutdowns. I've run every single test from PC-Doctor on it, and it has passed with flying colours. I'm assuming a motherboard issue, but can't put my finger on it. Therefore, for parts or repair it goes...NOT as a working unit, although I've managed to perform a full install of XP on a test HDD, and had it running Linux Mint from CD for well over 24hrs...

cosmetic imperfections:

- some wear and scratches on the lid
- left LCD latch is broken
- missing a piece of plastic from the left side bottom, not visible until you lift the laptop a bit.

The rest of the laptop is in near-perfect condition. Great LCD, keyboard, palmrest, bottom covers...
