| I hope this thread doesnt die out, as I am looking to actually build
this portable, and I would like some feedback. I will respond to any
input as well. So, fare well, and heres my third plea for information
about buying parts from otherwise damaged laptops. So, what I am
looking to spend is something like $650: |
| These exclusive laptop computers are all used in the IT trade; either as
demonstration models or as sales and
managerial staffs computers. You will also find some good deals on New
laptops on this list, some of which have been
upgraded (listed as New open box).
All 2nd user and refurbished models are re-conditioned to the highest
standard with only occasional minor cosmetic
damage.
Sindex also supply laptop components including power packs, batteries,
drives etc; as well as a repair service with free estimates. |

This situation puzzled me so much that I called their
U.S. laptop marketing office in Irvine, California, to
inquire. The man whom I spoke to told me that one-third

No! Many laptops do NOT come with this port. It would even be safe to say
that MOST laptops do not have a game port. For joysticks, etc., laptops
make do with parallel, serial, USB and IEEE 1394 ports. |

where it would be nice to know where you can buy working keyboards
w/trackpads from otherwise defective laptops. |
