    Hi everyone,

    I am planning on selling my laptop which is an HP Pavilion DV5000 and I need some advice or opinions on what would be a reasonable price. I purchased this laptop about a year ago from HP for about $1400 and I am planning on selling it for about $650. Here are the specs:

    Processor: Intel Centrino Duo Core TS2500 at 2.00 GHZ
    Screen: 15.4" WXGA Widescreen Display (1280X800)
    Video: 128MB NVIDIA GeForce GO 7400
    Hard Drive: 40GB 5400 RPM Serial ATA Hard Drive
    Disk Drive: CD/DVD RW Combo w/Double Layer
    Wireless: Intel Pro Wireless 3945ABG Network with Bluetooth
    Battery: 6 Cell Lithium Ion
    Memory: 1GB DDR2 SDRAM

    I am also going to include an optical usb mouse, carrying case, and all the original accessories that came with it. The laptop is in physically excellent condition with the acception of a few light scratches on the lid no dead pixels and everything works as if it was brand new. Is the price I mentioned above too much? too little? this will be the first time I have ever sold a laptop, so any input is welcome.
    Thanks
    Ryan
