This is a great machine with loads of goodness. It is great as a production machine for whatever task you throw at it and just as great when it comes to handling your media for leisure times.

Asking price is 650,000 Won OBO

I bought this computer just 1 1/2 years ago for $2,000 and it is still considered top of the line but now at a great price!

PM me to meet in Dongtan, Suwon or Seoul. Cash on delivery or bank transfer in advance. Thanks.

Here are some of the Hardware Specifications:
*15.4" LED LCD screen brings a brilliant and bright display allowing for plenty of real estate for your work and play.
*2.20 GHz Intel Core Duo processor to get the job done with video or games.
*4GB RAM memory so that you don't have to worry about having too many programs open at once and slowing down your system.
*200GB 7200 RPM SATAII Hard drive to ensure that you have plenty of room for your media and applications.
*Graphics: 256MB NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT
*Express card media remote to navigate your music and movies as well as a full media remote for accessing more options.
*Wireless-N capability, allowing you to take advantage of faster wireless speeds.

No shortage of connection ports:
*Input ports: 3 USB ports to connect your printer/scanner/external hard drives/mouse as well as a 7-port USB Hub
*Input ports: 8-in-1 Card Reader for your digital camera media cards
*Input ports: Express Card Reader which can be used for TV Tuners, eSata connections and much more
*Input ports: Firewire IEEE 1394a
*Connection ports: 1000Mbps Ethernet
*Display ports: VGA; HDMI and S-Video Out
*Audio ports: Microphone and Dual Headphone Jacks
*2.0 Megapixel Webcam for keeping in touch with your family via Skype.
*Dual digital array microphones to pick up your voice with clarity.
*Low profile optical-slot DVD Reader/Burner to watch your favorite movies and make copies of them.
*Media buttons for quick and easy media navigation from your keyboard.
*Dell Branded laptop sleeve for keeping your computer safe during travel.
*Biometric finger-print security system for added safety and fewer passwords to remember.

Weight and Dimensions:
*Weight: 5.78 lbs (2.62 kg)
*Width: 14.06" (357 mm)
*Height: 0.93" (23.7 mm)
*Depth: 10.34" (263 mm)

It also comes loaded with some great software to ensure that you get the most out of it:
*Genuine Windows 7 Professional Developers Edition
*Adobe Creative Suite 4 (Software to allow yourself full expression through design, video and audio)
*Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007 (Documents/Spreadsheets/Databases/Presentations this has you covered)
*Windows Media Center (An amazing way to organize and view your media using the included remotes)
*Nero 9 (Burn DVD player compatible DVDs with ease)
*Rocketdock (A navigation dock to help you spend less time searching and more time doing)
*Skype (Keep in touch with all your loved ones with video calls for free)

I have gotten some great use out of this computer and I think whoever purchases it will too.

Included items:
*Dell M1530 laptop with preinstalled software as described (Any software not needed can be removed beforehand)
*Dell M1530 power brick (North American plug)
*Dell Branded Laptop Sleeve

dude, I'm really so to do this, and maybe you didn't know.
but caveat emptor, the nvidia chip in this machine is a time bomb. It's a problem in HP, Dell, Lenovo and any other make that uses this gpu.

and:
http://en.community.dell.com/dell-blogs/b/direct2dell/archive/2008/07/25/nvidia-gpu-update-for-dell-laptop-owners.aspx
While the issue isn't nearly as bad as th HP's, just know if the gpu goes out you have a paperweight that no external monitor can can save you from.

That is something I knew of as that BIOS update was released about two weeks after I bought it and I updated it right after that. It should not be a problem with the update.

Dell: "These BIOS updates will help reduce the likelihood of GPU issues."

Tick tock.
