Thinking of selling laptop.


I am thinkin of sellin my laptop in the near future cuz I am very interested in getting a MacBook Pro. Not that I dont like linux (it's far better than Windows) it just seems that Mac OS X is the most complete and best OS out there (at this time(for me at least)). It's a HP Pavilion dv5000t notebook dual booting Win XP and Linux (cant say a specific distro since Ive been switchin around alot). So if anyone's interested just let me know. Remember though I am not sure if I will sell yet. If I do it'll probably be around $700-900. Its only a few months old (bought in July) and still in great condition. Almost no scratches. I'll try to get some pics later. Specs for laptop are down.

I will be willing to install a Distro of your choice (as long as I have it) and delete windows if you wish. If you want to keep windows I will do a complete restore (unless you dont want me to). The linux distros I have are Fedora Core 6, OpenSuse 10.1 Remastered (and original still), OpenSuse 10.0, PCLinuxOS .93a, Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Dapper Drake, Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft, and Simply Mepis 6.0. I do have Feespire but it wont detect the hard drive. I will also send the install CD(s)/DVD (of course) and the Windows recovery DVDs

Specs here:

-HP Pavilion dv5000t Notebook
-Windows XP / Linux
-15.4" WXGA widscreen Truebrite display(glassy instead of normal) at 1280 x 800
-6 cell battery (lasts arond 2 1/2 to 3 hours on windows (changes with linux distrobution))
-128 MB Nvidia GeForce 7400 Go
-80 GB SATA HD 5400 rpm
-Intel Core Duo 2.0 Ghz
-3 USB 2.0 ports
-DVD+-RW/CD-RW (48x Cd read, cant remember other speeds/they didnt say when I bought)
-Intel Pro Wireless 3945 ABG
-10/100 ethernet port
-typical 56k modem
-other media card slots (dont know the types all that well)
-1 PC card slotb (maybe 2 haha cant tell if one is or isnt (never used PC cards before))
-S-Video Out
-External Monitor Port
-1 firewire (I think, not the typical port for firewire (its that little square with the firewire symbol)
-1 expansion port (believe for docking station which I dont have)
-Earphone Jack
-Microphone Jack
-Altec Lansing High Definition Adudio Speakers

REMEMBER!!! I AM NOT SELLING FOR SURE!!
