Hi WAMUGgers
[OT]
I'm hoping someone may be able to help with this query.
My son in law has been offered an ex-DET lease Acer Travelmate 270
for $750. It seems to have been well looked after.
Generally I'd say don't buy second hand, compared to what you can get
new, but I need to ask this question?
Is it worth $750?
A quick inspection suggests it is 896 Mhz Pentium R, 1.6Ghz HDD
running Win XP Home. No other software as far as I know, other than
IE and usual Windows install stuff. It doesn't seem to have CD
burning or DVD capabilities, or installed wireless - radio/infrared.
As I've had far more experience with Macs, I'm not sure what to tell
him. What is your advice?
(Don't tell me to tell him to buy a Mac. I know he should :-) but
he's a winMan. Let's leave it at that.)
Many thanks
Reg
