I'm just going to get a new laptop, but I'm sure this one is still very usable and worth at least $800. The LCD screen is dimmed on the left hand side and the front left battery slot needs a new lock to hold it in place. I'm told that both problems are fixable, but I'd rather buy a less powerful machine as my needs have changed. Here are the specs:
