WTT: Trade my Macbook C2D for XP Laptop

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
Hey everyone. Recently, I got a new job where I'm required to have a windows computer. Since I just bought an Imac for my house, I figure I might as well get rid of my macbook and get a windows laptop. Basically, I want to trade my macbook straight up or maybe it and a little cash for a similar windows laptop. Here are the specs on my macbook...

Age- approx 1.5 years old
Processor- 2.0 Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory- 2 gb 667 mhz ddr2
Harddrive- 80 gb
Screen- 13.3 glossy
Bluetooth
DVDRW Drive
Airport Extreme Wireless Card
Isight Camera
OSX Leopard (comes with tiger discs)
Applecare (approx 1.5+ years left)
Microsoft Office 2008 Professional Pre-installed
Condition- other than the normal wear on the back screen cover, the computer is in excellent shape. I take care of my stuff. I've had a marware palmrest protector on it since day 1, so when I take that off the palmrest will look brand spankin new. Screen is flawless.

Here is what I want to trade for...

Processor- Dual Core of some type equal or better than what I have
Memory- prefer 2gb or better/ 1 gb minimum
Harddrive- minimum 80 gb.. more would be much better
Screen- anything from 13-14".. maybe 15.. NOT 17
Bluetooth
DVDRW Drive
Good wireless card
PREFER WINDOWS XP PROFESSIONAL... will maybe think about vista (oh god)
Condition- very good to excellent- no scuffs, large scratches, drops, etc...
Warranty- prefer a computer with some left on it
Graphics- whatever/ don't play pc games much

I've been looking at Lenovo, Dell Refurbs, HP.. not too fond of Compaq or Gateway but i'll at least consider any offer.

You guys can pm me or email me ( i check that more often) pdeyarman@gmail.com

Built-in webcam

Intel 802.11 a/b/g/n wireless card

To the OP. I was pointed to this thread and asked to remind you that you can install Windows on the Macbook. You can either dual-boot, or run via virtualization. Or just install windows by itself. In Leopard look for Boot Camp.

Yes it is! OP is prolly primarily looking for something a bit different though rather than making due.
