Uhh,

2400Mhz new @ $699
2400Mhz / 600Mhz = 4
$699/4 = $175
$175 * 60% (used) = $ 105

Where can you buy a 2.4GHz laptop for $700?? Cheapest we can buy them
in
the
PX (which is cheaper than any computer store back home) is about
$1200,
plus
or minus a few $.. maybe you're thinking of desktop or tower machines,
which
are a lot cheaper than laptops..

Maybe so, but the reason you post is to sell something, not to be
helfpul.

rec.radio.amateur.misc is not a forsale newsgroup. Neither, do
I assume, are the two laptop newsgroups that you originally posted
to (but which you've now taken out of the cross-posting.

rec.radio.swap I thought wasn't intended for computers, though at
least it is intended as a buying and selling newsgroup, unlike
the other three.

But just because something can be related to a subject, does not
mean it should be posted there. The whole point of specific newsgroups
is to group related matters, and once you start suggesting "this
can be used with radio [or whatever]" then you open the floodgates
for any kind of forsale ad.

The only thing that matters to you is that you want to sell this
computer, and you make the mistake that it will sell faster if
you post to more newsgroups.

Since I have a lamp in my hamshack, should we sell lamps here? If I
have a chair in my hamshack, should we sell them here? Since you are
not supposed to sell anything here, should we try to sell laptops here?

(hint: "NO" to all three)

Let me know if you need a bigger hint.
