I was hunting for the Compaq Celeron 566 @OD B&M last night, and could not get one in three stores. This came up just right in time. It's a better choice that the campaq model, first the TFT screen is better than HPA, and its 100MHz bus beat 66MHz of compaq's. Only drawback is the HD size, well, if I can get 10% back for that, it is not that bad. And certainly I will put some more memeory to this baby.

Don't think you'll get the 10% back anymore. They fixed the advertised HD sized to read "4.3gb formatted capacity".

I don't think Wally World will give the 10% anymore. The product description has been updated to reflect the hard drive capcity:

Description

* Model No. N5125
* Intel Celeron 500 MHz processor
* 100 MHz front-side bus design
* 64 MB SDRAM at 100 MHz
* 5.0 GB hard drive (4.3 GB formatted capacity)

I did not notice that they changed the description and added "4.3GB formatted capacity" when I place the order. The item was in my saved cart and I read it when I put it there but didn't bother to read it again when I pulled it out this time. Does that qualify me for the 10% off? (grin evily).

rickforrest, there is a rebate available through hp IF you purchase a qualifying printer also. If you are creative and go through staples using one of the coupons floating around and then send in the rebate you don't really end up making $50 but you will get a printer for nearly free.

Has anyone had any luck finding a battery for these. The only one I can find is on the HP website for $149. I'm going to Hawaii in June and I know the battery won't last the entire flight, especialy if I am watching a DVD.

You do need to buy a printer, scanner or camera to get the $50 rebate.

As for batteries the only place I've found that sells them is the HP website.

It was back instock a few minutes ago. I managed to go to the check out page, spent af few seconds logging on to ebate.com, and BAAAM, I could not finish the check out process. It said that item was out of stock!

Damn it, I missed it yet again.

Peetoeng,

Why not use dashboard - I got my $23 from this purchase, and it's easy, you don't even have to login in to their site to get the cash back.

i was thinking

cost me
$750 (laptop) granted I spent 60 in taxes on this, darn CA
$40 (network card)
$30 (case)
$65 (128mb crucial)

total $885+shipping+tax(CA) would sell for maybe $850 shipped, ive still got to think this one over a bit heh, but let me know what you think.

sorry if this isn't appropriate here, pm or email me if interested.

reason for selling: its an awesome laptop, just I don't use it as much as I thought, and my CC bills are mounting *shrug*. I sold my iPAQ to buy it, and think im just going to buy a cheap pda and pay off some bills with the proceeds. I have 4 computers at home hehe, only so much time.

only complaint about the laptop is a lithium ion battery wouldn't kill it, plus the 64 mb included is a little weak, hence my 128mb upgrade.

UPDATE: its gone to snagg

unsped, why did you buy all that stuff only to sell it so quickly? Are you not happy with the laptop?

PS. Aren't humans made out of meat too? ;)

Hi, got a question for those of you guys with the laptop. What type of video-out does it have? Does it have a s-video or any other type of connection that would allow me to hook it up to my tv, or does it just have a VGA output to hook up to a monitor? Thanks!
