Laptop doesn't seem to be in production anymore. Closest resemblance I can find is the V2000.

AMD Turion 64 1.8Ghz
1.5GB RAM
ATI Mobility Radeon Xpress 200M video card
80GB hard drive
Genuine Windows XP Home
15.4" Widescreen matte

Visible signs of wear, nothing that hinders its functionality though. Weighs about 5 pounds. Sound quality so-so.

How much can I get it for? Someone's offering $150. I bought it for about $900 last year.

hard to say, I think its worth more than 150, maybe 250? try looking through the local classified ads, they might give you some idea.

Hi BG and yuio,

Thanks for your replies. So there is a (somewhat) general consensus that it should be more than $150. My starting price was actually $250, although I may have to be content with $200 just because there's some minor problems with the laptop.

I've looked through ebay and manufacturers' websites on systems with similar configurations before coming up with $250 as the asking price. I do believe it's reasonable, considering I'm throwing in some extras.
