That's a good option package if you get it working, fast HD like others said, and it looks like you got the 1900x1200 LCD also! I cant tell what if anything special graphics card that thing has though, but it is somewhat loaded, so....????

Dear lord... JUST the HDD, CD are worth $70. The LCD as a "used" part is worth $140... you made out like a bandit from hell...

You see from the responses how this looks like a stolen unit, right?
Just a bit too good to be true, is all I'm sayin'. Ain't no "honor among theives" here, so i hope it's not.

Why you lucky bastard!
I believe your chipset means you have a pin-modable 9200.

...& "no", I don't have an aswer for you. Window Blinds comes to mind, but I think I've read about that being a resource hog.
It's very popular, and someone will surely correct me if I'm wrong.

You could probably game on it with some of the older games. With over 1GB of RAM, WindowBlinds should be no problem. It's just that you get a handful of background apps like that running all the time, and then you decide to pop in a game or do some photo editing, and you'll get some lag.
Best thing to do if you intend to do intense stuff like that is to create another admin account where only bare bones essentials are set to run.
Set all extranious programs and background apps in the "Pretty" account to run just for that user.
Many programs, upon installation, will give you that choice; Install for you, or for everyone.
Perhaps someone can say how to limit the installed programs to certain users?
I know it can be done pretty easily, but I forget how.
