    I’m wondering how much my Sony FS750 is worth.
    It’s 3 ½ months old and it still has the sony factory stickers on it.

    1.86GHz
    XP Pro
    2Gigs DDR2 Memory
    60GB 7200RPM HDD

    I'm terrible at appraising notebooks but you should get at least $1000.

    considering how you have 2GB memory and the 7200RPM HD, it should go at least the same retail price of the FS750, even more as long as there's nothing wrong with it.

    I purchased my FS750 in November not knowing that a duo processor was coming out. If I would have known, I would have waited. :mad:

    I’m a photojournalist working for a wire service and I’m running multiple programs, Photoshop (loaded with about 25 digital photos), Photo Mechanic, ftp etc., and I must say this FS750 handles it very well! But I’m wondering how much better a duo processor would be. I’m sure that it will be a lot better.

    Woah, its really cool, creepy and weird at the same time to see my avatar and message at the top left corner of your notebook!

    Changed my cruddy appraissal, you should get at least $1300 easily for it.

    Yeah, $1200-$1300 seems good since not many notebooks these days have 2GB of RAM and I see that you have an upgraded 7200 rpm hard drive.

    I'd say $1,400 or more. That's a nice notebook. The fact that it has a wty is very attractive, as well as 2GB RAM.

    I'd check eBay and see what similar models are going for.
