Hey all! As many of you know, I often go to the local transfer station (recycling plant) to take garbage and bottles, as well as rummaging through the electronics. Today I found some old 72 pin Ram in an old half taken apart Dell socket 5 PC. I used it in another one of my PC's, a packard bell Multimedia M400 Pentium MMX-166. Anyway, I found this old thick laptop, not too old, just old enough for me to take a peek, and its in pretty good shape! I brought it home with the ram and fired it up with a compatible power cord and it works fine and boots to windows XP. Since I dont have an XP CD I'll just keep the old OS on there and delete some files and what not. I was going to upload a CPU-Z report but it either says extension is not allowed or something that it was rejected. Anyway, specs are: Pentium 4 CPU 2.80 ghz, 1.25 gb ram, Intel "extreme" graphics, etc. The DVD drive was not letting me access a blank CD-R earlier but oh well. Also trying to upload a pic but still says extension not allowed.
