Used. It has a 30GB HD, 256MB RAM, ATI Radeon 7500 Mobility (interesting to put it in mirror mode and hook the svideo up to the roommate's big screen HDTV, sit on the coffee table and play Atari Train Simulator with an almost life-size view, flightgear's my next big screen fodder if I get to keep the features of the video card in Linux...but since ATI drivers tend to suck overall and runs on duct-tape and baling wire in Windows, I'm really not holding my breath on that). -- Paul Johnson Email and Instant Messenger (Jabber): [EMAIL PROTECTED] Got jabber? http://ursine.ca/Ursine:Jabber -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
