    probably because nobody wants to buy an 8-series nvidia card till people know what's going on with that, oh and also the HD is kinda small...

    Please don't cross post. If you post on the BST forum, please follow the BST rules and the BST form.

    Your C90S is worth more than $400. I'd say in the range of $700
    The 8xxx series GPUs from nvidia are known to be defective and overheats and applies to every brand of notebook that contains the 8xxx GPUs.

    Especially in the C90S. And the C90S has many problems. The CPU is what worth a lot though.

    That's what I heard when I bought it in Dec. But I haven't had one problem and now no one wants to touch it.

    See, you can get better laptops brand new for the same price or cheaper, in many circumstances. I doubt anyone will pay >$900 for it. Sorry.
