This vintage Dell Latitude C-series notebook laptop has been meticulously cleaned and restored back to good working condition. The Latitude series from Dell was favored by businesses and government due to the legendary durability of the design. It's a testament to Dell engineering that almost 21 years later, this laptop is still running strong. This Latitude is an excellent representation of this philosophy and I hope it gives you many years of pleasure. I have over 20 years experience rebuilding and maintaining computers, and service & built machines exactly like this one for a major OEM! Complete unit with a charger and battery (no warranty on battery).The original retail on this unit as configured here was over $1,000! As an option, I have a docking station now available, with an additional 3 PCI slots and a multibay built-in. Please inquire after purchase.
Don't be fooled by other sellers claiming that their machine only boots and has not been tested! We have lovingly rebuilt this machine and all its features and functions run as intended! Minor wear and tear to be expected. No warranties whatsoever on batteries!
Hardware Details below, skip down for Software Details!
Processor / CPU: To begin, the processor is a a Pentium III @ 500-1.0 Ghz. The processor is cooled by a professionally engineered cooling fan / heatsink combo. I have also installed Rain 2.0, which is a software-base cooling solution.
Motherboard: This high-quality Intel motherboard features the veritable Intel 830 Chipset, and two 32-bit Type I/II/III PCMCIA slots! (If you insert a Type III card, you must use the bottom slot, as it takes up both spaces). Perfect for your industrial controller software! Also has a serial port and a parallel port. Unit uses a standard PS/2-style keyboard and serial port mice. No keyboard or mouse included. CMOS battery may need to be replaced, on order, if I get it before this laptop sells, I will install it, otherwise I will have it shipped directly to you!
