Advantages: Value for money, Light Disadvantages: Old Model
I chose this item as a second hand notebook as I saw the prices new machiness were fetching. However I was not in the slightest bit dissappointed. It has a great bright 14.1" screen and i9s pretty light. The 128MB RAM and 6GB hard disk are ample, thus allowing the PII366 to run at full speed. Second hand it can be picked up for under £800. Well worth it! If you want a totally reliable seecond hand machine, with a good back up support team, then this ...

Advantages: Good speed, long durability, great motherboard, compatibility with DOS, good with multimedia Disadvantages: Slow memory at times, manual installation of graphics drivers for higher resolutions
I purchased a used Toshiba Tecra 8000 in a PC magazine about four years ago, and to this day, it continues to work great. It cost about $400, and I think it was worth it.

When I reinstalled Windows on it, ... ...website to give me higher screen resolutions. The installation was simple, and it worked great.
The RAM in the laptop is pretty good, but it would slow down the operating system from time to time. If I ran a program, it would take forever to load, but a memory allocator program worked to correct it.
