XPS Gen 2 Laptop & XPS Gen 4 Desktop Used Value worth opinions? (Boxed Games too)

Hi, I just registered for the first time here and would like to get some knowledgeable ideas on the used value of these two units prior to listing them.

Laptop:Like New Condition; Sits in my laptop bag unused. Maximum of 40 hours use in the year Ive had it, purchased on ebay brand new a tad over one year ago from a 3rd party source that was apparently reselling after utilizing their company dell discount. Business travel gaming never took off for me. Warranty expired around christmas of 05, never had to call dell for any issues. No problems whatsoever as Im typing this message with the laptop after running 3dmark 05 without a hitch. WoW plays at full settings/reso with no lag while in battlegrounds (multiple person controlled moving characters on screen at once).

Laptop: XPS Gen 2 (No Warranty)
17 inch UltraSharp Wide Screen UXGA Display with TrueLife
Pentium M Processor 770 (2.13 GHz/2MB Cache/533MHz FSB)
1 GB DDR2 SDRAM 533 MHZ Samsung Module (1 DIMM) 1 Bank Empty
60 GB 7200 RPM Hard Drive
256MB NVIDA GeForce Go 6800 ULTRA

6 USB ports (2 side/4 rear)

Fully charged battery set to Maximum battery life setting yields about 2:15-2:30 hours of use/internet, about 1:45-2:00 while gaming.

Software: Windows XP Home Edition/Factory OS CD Included



Desktop model I used for gaming, as Im currently very busy with my investment property renovations I do not game enough to justify this monster on my desk. Like new physical/internal condition (I cleaned the inside monthly), cannot guess at the hours of use but I never played for more then 3-4 hours at a time when i did use it.

Desktop Model: Dell XPS Gen 4 (Blue Tower) 2.5 Years remaining on a Premium warranty purchased from Dell; Originally purchased with a 4 year Premium.

Intel Pentium 4 3.4 Ghz "2MB L3 Cache" "Extreme Edition" Model
Heatsink is massive and almost identical to Thermaltake CL-P0024 but aluminum rather then the copper model Thermaltake reference; two 90mm fans feed it. I replaced the thermal factory heatsink pad with Arctic Silver 5 as Im the prevention rather then wait and see type of individual.
ATI x800 XT 256MB 16 Pipe PCI-E Model
2GB 533Mhz DDR2 Samsung Modules (1GB x2) 2 Banks Empty
Intel 915 Motherboard - Non SLI/Crossfire (PCI-e x16/4 SATA)
Creative Labs Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS (Frontside Audio/USB/Firewire/MIC terminal with cover)

Blue ATX Dell XPS Gen 4 Case with front changeable lights/Built in PSU on the bottom of the case (unsure about the watt value but its definetly atleast 480w)

Software: Windows XP Home Edition/Factory OS CD Included


I also have these items I may sell if the price is worth it or combined with the above systems.

2x 80GB Dell version of WD SATA Raptors 10k RPM. Rev 02 models
ATI x800 XT 256MB 16 Pipe PCI-e OEM GFX Card - Never used
