Windows XP Professional
Genuine Windows XP Professional
Display type: 14.1 SXGA+ TFT

Is this a legit buy?
Can you recommend an 'apples 4 apples' cheaper alternative?
Is the configuration incomplete?
Buy from Ebay?
Primary use will be for basic home computing NO gaming.
Thanks,

why buy a laptop when you can get so much more for the same money. Remove the second monitor from that link and the cost will be only marginally more than yours... |
