Jason, Well it's 15" and probably from 2007 ish so it's getting on a bit now. Not at home so I can't investigate the exact model. I can't switch it on either so even when I am at home that's going to be a problem.
External monitor/start up is a good idea. I'll try that. Phil --- Sent on the move......
