Opinions wanted!

Is a 2GHz laptop with 256MB of memory and a 20 GB hard drive worth $425?

I'd probably get an extra battery and a docking station with it, and it still has almost a year warrantee left on it.

Yea, I would say that is a good price, especially if all the other things you mentioned are coming with it.

I would suggest checking on the type of processor it has though. Make sure it is good for what you want to use it for.

Based on the spec sheet, it's:

PROCESSOR, 80532, 2.0GHZ, 512K, PENTIUM 4, MICRO FLIP CHIP PIN GRID ALIGNMENT

So that's not really a worry. And a closer look reveals that it has a CD-RW/DVD combo drive. Now to see if I can talk Erik into it...
