   This computer has a number of utilities. Although it has Business application in mind it has many other uses as well.

I have a DVD player installed on Win98 and Win2000. It should work with most DVDs. It worked fine for me but I can not guarantee your DVDs play-ability on this system.

This laptop has a VGA out port and interface with Monitors/Flat Panels Through a VGA in port. So this laptop can double as a  portable gaming system as well. I tested many games on it to make sure Win98/2000 would have no problems. So if you have old game cdroms that you could not play on your modern PC, this system will likely play them.  

Many older business and programming applications needed the ability to communicate with different equipment and this laptop series that is being used for this all have the basic Legacy components needed. Here are a short list of features that have been configured to be ready for your software to use.

A physical  Com/Serial port.
A parallel port
PCMCIA ports
A network LAN card is easy to install on this system although this is not recommended for internet use.
VGA out

 What is good about this laptop is the extreme Windows compatibility with Application programs made for WIndows between 1993 to 2003.

An example is you may have a older piece of equipment that requires communicating through a real 9 pin serial port or 25 pin Parallel port. Since these computers still have these port mounted it will make the connection much easier to configure.

I encourage people to ask questions. If you want to know if one of your Programs will work with one of my systems I can let you know for sure. The Last thing you want to do is waste time and money. Purchase the best system the first time that will cover the widest range for the programs you want use. You would be surprised at the number of issues these well configured systems address. So feel free to ask and Please give me a little time to get back to you.

These computers completely take the guess work out of obtaining a compatible computer for Windows NT/98/2000/Dos apps.  If you figure in the...

1) Computer
2) Operating system
3) All components working properly.
4) The time and Expert attention devoted.     

All this to make sure everything is right the first time. Then the asking price of these Ultra compatible computers is minimal. 

The idea is to provide a Service and not just a decent laptop. People want to know they are not going to have to root out a lot of problems first after receiving the unit.

 Comes with power cord. If the laptop includes a battery the battery may be aged and may no longer charge or hold a charge. Batteries are relatively inexpensive  here on eBay and the computer works fine running on the power cord. I can not afford to include a new battery with the lap at this price.
  
I am very careful about how I pack and ship your laptop. The reason is after you go through all the trouble of finding the laptop that you want and suits you needs. It is a real disappointment to receive it and have it broken in shipping. This causes all kinds of problems. So I do the little extra need to make sure your laptop comes ready to use. It would be hard to abuse one of these laptop packages badly enough to damage its contents. 

These Laptops have screens that are in generally decent condition. Sometimes they will have a variation in brightness across the screen, this is not unusual for laptops of this era. Some may have a few dead pixels and the color may be a little off. All can be plugged into a VGA monitor for viewing as well and used as a replacement for a desktop. Laptops may have some dings and scratches as you would expect from a laptop nearing 20 years old. But they work very well and have already proved they will last.

  Please ask questions and I will answer ASAP.
