    Not very hot at all, it's a refurb with an older 1.5GHz processor so you know it's a year old or so, slow hard drive, ugly snap-op cherrywood cover included that they're probably including in the price, not a very good graphics processor (you may not need that so not a huge deal). You could probably get close to as good a deal on a new notebook with similar specs.

    pass on this.

    I think if they includ AOL 5 times, it must worth a fortune (or am I mistaking;O)

    goga, keep all your one/two sentence short messages all in one msg. This isn't instant messaging, your not going to get a response in most cases for atleast a half-hour if not more.

    Please stay on topic goga and do not post replies to yourself, just edit your last reply if it's the last item in a thread. I had to delete 8 of your posts because they made no sense.
