    hi i bought this laptop like a year ago to play games and stuff, but now i don't need it no more and trying to find out how much it worth. Upgraded to 2 gigs of ram from the previous one. And have Windows XP on it with game tweaks to it. It can play Team Fortress 2 moderate settings, but can play counter-strike source or half-life 2 on very high setting with no lag if that matters.

    Asus A7 series A7T-x1

    $400.
    You asked.
    We answered.
    Technology is like a car, once you drive it off the lot it looses it's value, to higher end components for less.

    That's basic economics :rolleyes:
