Every time I look through used laptops, I never understand why anyone
would ever buy them.
From Outpost.com for $599 *NEW*:
GQ ZX-3310 AMD TURION MT-30; 256MB Memory; 40GB HD; Combo; 15.4"WXGA
TFT; 802.11b/g; XP Home
From used for $639.00:
Compaq P-IV-2.0GHz, 512mb ram, 40gb Hard Drive, DVD/CDRW, 14.1 TFT SXGA
1400x1050 display, battery, AC adapter, 56K Fax/Modem, 10/100 Ethernet,
USB, Windows XP Pro, Compaq Warranty
Okay, the 256MB memory is probably worth $40. But this is used vs. new
for the same price!
Why would I ever buy used? Given the fact that I almost *never* get a
good price from any of the "discount" stores on Clairemont Mesa anymore,
I wonder how they stay open. I'm beginning to think that they are money
laundering operations of some form.
