how much would you pay for this laptop?
a friend is offering for me to buy his lap top.. however I am uneducated on the value of computers.. how much would this computer be worth? it is from april but was rarely used.
17" WUXGA+ 60gb 7200 RPM HD GeForce 6800 Go 512 MB Intel Centrino 1.6 Carbon Fiber Quicksnap Includes both a 9-cell AND a 6-Cell battery also includes a backpack and a wireless mouse. thanks

Re: how much would you pay for this laptop?
what other onboard features does it have?
wireless? 10/100? unless you can get the warranty information and transfer all that kinda stuff over unless your very computer literate i wouldnt buy a used laptop, too much can go wrong.

I'd be surprised if over $300.

Re: how much would you pay for this laptop?
I think 300 is a little low, bout 600 sounds about right.
the problem with laptops and computers in general is the prices go down while the speed goes up. I spend $200 on the mobo i have and 6 months later you can get it for 58 on newegg, pissed me off too. i wouldnt pay more than 600.

You'd look like a huge douche if you offered $300, and he'd laugh in your face (unless he stole it). If there's a warranty and stuff, you could pay more. This is a good laptop. Buy it for under $1k (offer him 750 or so to start), get 2gb of RAM from newegg for $200, and be happy. I configured a 9300 with the same specs (except for a 1.73 Centrino instead of a 1.6) and the price was 2100 with no coupons and no warranty. I know it's used, but damn, it's far from shitty. Freakin
