    Im licking my lips ...
    6 month old d610
    14inch XGA
    2.13ghz Dothan
    1GB ram
    Intel GMA 900, boohoo, no "aero glass"... i wont loose sleep.
    80GB hd
    CDRW/DVD
    900 days left on CompleteCare plan... wtf

    $450. Oh yeah. This badboy seems to be the fav latitude to date, so it will compliment my new e1505 duo core for mucho travel for work. I picked up a D510 the other week for $450, sold it for $550. I think I will keep the D610 for myself. Im pysched, the price is ridiculously low, but i have a nasty habit of picking up laptops on the cheap and turning profit on them ... some may say "wait" for the D620... yada yada... key point: $450. I take others trash, since its my treasure. ok, enough rambling for me.

    That price rocks. If it accomplishes your work, who cares about Aero? You can buy another PC later...

    The 80GB is overkill, I never order laptops with the "upgraded" hd option since all my data is stored on my home nas (zero important data on any laptop), much safer ....... i dont know what I would do with 80GB .... I should just sell it and get a 7200rpm 40GB.
