This was my buddies laptop, it has a few cracks in the case but they are all on the bottom and really don't have any effect on the use of the system.
I used to have the same machine running XP with 512mb ram but that was before all those updates and shit.

do you have more memory you can install?
do you have more memory you can install?
nope, if I did I would have already. It runs Win2k fine as is but I think the max is only 512 anyway and it takes PC-100
When this machine was new I ran XP with 512mb but that back in the day before SP1 even came out.

Serial port? good battery?
it has a seril port but hte battery is dead
I can't believe no one wants this, the AC adapter is worth $20.00!!!
It's not a bad laptop, I owned the exact same model for a good two or three years.
I have a car adapter I can throw in if you need it for tuning.
I upgraded mine to a DVD-CDRW combo drive (I found a Compaq model that the doors swapped)
All he did with this is stream mp3's and net radio to his back deck (hottub) for years.
I did check crucial.com and the max ram is only 512mb so it's defiantly not a gaming machine but I'd give it to my kid or use it as a thin client or load up Linux and I'm sure it would work fine. (win2k runs fine as is) I'll pop office on it if you need it.
The laptop is a celron with 128k of cache BUT the 500MHz celron has SSE extensions so it performs as a PIII not a PII
