Two laptops arrived today:
A Compaq 6910P (C2D T7300, 4GB RAM, 3 20GB HDD, GMA X3100, 14.1" 1440x900)
A Dell XPS M1730 (C2D T7300, 4GB RAM, Quadro FX3500M, 17" 1920x1200)
The Dell has had its screen replaced but I don't believe it's the correct model (does anyone know if a 1710 came with a glossy display? Everything I can find says it should have an Intel TrueLife display), is missing the wireless cover door, the hard drive caddy, the system complains the battery is too weak to boot the system, and it won't boot with the included PA-13 power adapter because the adapter is bad and the computer can't identify it's wattage (I check and my E1505 couldn't identity it either so it's not the DC jack). My XPS Gen1's PA-15 wouldn't work as it would then complain no power adapter was connected. It was also pretty loose in the jack so I think the PA15 is using a slightly different plug. Also included were a spare motherboard and a GeForce 7900GS video card as spares. I think I'm going to spend around 50 getting this machine 100 percent working.
