Don't need this laptop anymore, work's getting me an X220. It's a great little system. Under three pounds with the extended five hour battery installed. Pretty fast too - spanks a netbook. Has a Core i3 (3-5x faster than an Atom).

Specs:

11.6" 1366x768 display
4GB DDR3 RAM
Core i3-2357m dual core CPU @ 1.30ghz
Win7 64 bit
About six months old - clean condition - 9/10, a few minor scratches on the lid.

I upgraded it to a Samsung 830 64GB SSD - brand new today (my Crucial SSD took a crap). $110 drive. Boots from power button press to desktop in about 25 seconds.

It comes with the three cell battery (2.5 hrs) and a Samsung extended battery that gets around five hours. The extended battery was $80.

The mediocre wireless card was replaced with a higher end Intel Centrino card - ~$25.

The laptop includes the original box, as does the SSD.

WEI:
CPU - 4.9
RAM - 5.9
Graphics - 4.7
Gaming Graphics - 6.1
Primary Hard Disk - 7.6

Has a clean install of Win7 with the basic drivers and some utilities installed. Ready to use. Will take pics this weekend. It doesn't include office, I lost the product key. Sorry.

$450 shipped and paypalled (they are going for $400-$450 on ebay, $520 on Amazon, with none of the upgrades)

If I didn't already have the Acer Aspire I bought from you I'd be on this. Just got an X220 from work also at the beginning of the year.

Sell the Acer, wheel and deal like I do. haha

The X220 spanks both of them though if it's spec'd out right.

Mine has a Core i5-2520m, IPS screen, 80GB micro SSD and 320GB 7200RPM HDD, in that tiny little 12.5" machine. Awesome laptops.

If you're curious about the CPU's performance since it sounds slow @ 1.30ghz, you can use this chart for comparison. click

Just ctrl+f 2357, find the score, and compare it whatever else you're looking at.

This CPU is equal in performance to a Core 2 Duo E6700 desktop CPU @ 2.67ghz, whereas an Atom is roughly equivalent to a crappy Pentium 4.
