    Hi. I've just brought a Clevo D410E laptop off ebay. The only thing is there is no information about it. I can't find anything about the laptop on google or the Clevo site. I know it was foolish but I impulsed bidded and nobody outbidded me which I'm taking as a bad sign. It hasn't come yet. I saw a photo of it but that's it really. I know it's a 15" screen and is a Pentium 4 and has 512MB.
    Has anybody owned out of these? What year did they come out? What do they come equipped with (ie, in-bulit webcam, cd rom drive etc)?
    And last of all, what are these laptops going for? I don't know whether it was worth the money or not as I have no idea about the laptop itself.

    Any info about this laptop would be great.

    Thank you. :)

    As long as you didn't pay more than $200 for it, you should be fine. It's going to be old and used, but a P4 can still do all the basic stuff.

    Have you contacted the seller?

    Yeah but he was quite vague. He's got 100% feedback as a buyer so I trust that he's honest. He did tell me it's in good condition. I'm assuming it's quite an old model. I'm not up to date on laptops or PC's. Do you know if I can attach a webcam to it? Cuz I'm assuming it doesn't have an in-bulit one...

    It cost me $140. Do you think it was worth that? I could of brought a well-known refurbished brand one for the same price in this shop down the road but I decided to be lazy. Lol.

    I only need it for flash games and msn really. As long as it can do that I'm happy. :)

    Is it possible to upgrade Clevos? Or would it cost me more that the laptops worth?

    Here is the user manual, and the service manual is in my sig.

    Should be the equivalent of the Sager NP4060
