I have a Gateway 450SX4 laptop that I am looking to get rid of, but I don't know how much to ask for it. It has 1.9ghz Pentium 4/256 ram/30gb HD, and a 15in display. It has an XP professional license, but due to information protection, the hard drive will be wiped. I was not going to place this in the for sale forum, b/c I am looking for some feedback. The machine is in great shape. We just got them after an acquisition, and have no use for them at work.

Thoughts???

I'd say between $300.00 and $600.00 on ebay...

Computers depreciate faster than any other merchandise I think....

Hey electrobuzz, that sounds and looks like a desktop PC. With the price and those specs, I can just about guarantee it is. How do I know?!?!?

Analog flat panel?!? Laptops have LCD's and TFT's. And two CD drives?!? Not a laptop in this world that comes from the factory has 2 optical drives.

JBONE is trying to sell a LAPTOP. Laptops are much higher priced than ANY desktop PC out there. [Wave]

JBONE, THIS is the closest I could find on Ebay. They want $529 buy it now for a P4 1.8GHz version of your laptop, with a 14.1" screen, and a 20GB harddrive. You can probably get closer to $600 for yours.
