Have yet to try powering them on, unsure if they have RAM and HDD installed, or a working battery.
Can get a Chinese charger for it for $7 on ebay.
Assuming for a moment, that they are complete, what should my friend do with them, with my help?
They are Core2Duo 2.2Ghz with either 2GB of RAM and a 160GB HDD, or1GB of RAM and a 120GB HDD. GM965 chipset, I think, with the option for a discrete ATI 2400XT GPU.
One review mentions being shipped with Vista Business, downgraded to XP Pro.
Would Win10 32-bit run on this machine, you think? Can Core2Duo laptops usually boot off of USB?
Would be looking to swap in a 32/60GB SSD, probably.

Edit: It should be stated that my friend has never owned a laptop before. This would be a nice opportunity for him, and his GF, if they both work.
