If I didn't have one already, I would jump for this, I think.

Inside the lid and the rear looked in fabulous condition. I probably would have gone for that. The 770 palmrest does not age well.

Here's another one that seems to have a SelectaBase 770 attached to it (unless I'm misinterpreting the photos):

I did actually grab this one :thumbs-UP:

The guy is super slow to ship, but yeah I'll have to let you guys know if it turns out to be a good purchase.

I still have a HP 19" LCD with 1280x1024 hooked up to my old desktop.

1280x1024 is ubiquitous for monitors -- I still have at least 5 of them lying around at work -- but super rare for laptops because the 5:4 aspect ratio was tricky to accommodate on laptops. I once had a Dell Inspiron 7500 with 15.4" 1280x1024 and its lid was so tall that it stuck out a lot, making it one of the ugliest laptops I've ever seen.

A lot of his buyers say the same thing in their negative feedback, unfortunately. Most of them eventually got what they paid for, though.
