Sony VAIO laptop (with serial port)

Sony VAIO PCG-FX140

This is an older laptop with the following specs:

700 MHz Intel Pentium III processor
384MB of RAM
10 GB hard drive
14.1” XGA TFT screen
Removable 3.5" 1.44 MB disk drive
DVD-ROM drive
Type I/II PC cards and Type III PC card with CardBus support
2 USB ports (1 port is broken)
Serial port
VGA monitor
Parallel (printer)
Phone line (RJ-11)
Microphone
Headphone

I will include a D-Link DWL-650 wireless PCMCIA card and driver disk. This card will support the wireless B protocol and WEP encryption.

I have done a fresh install of Windows 2000 Professional with service pack 4 and all updated Windows drivers.

This laptop has both a serial and parallel port on it, so there is no need to use a USB to serial converter when trying to run monitoring software. I have run a trial of DataMaster on this laptop and it connected to my truck fine so I know that it will work as a tuner laptop. I can't guarantee the life of the battery, but I did take a picture of what the laptop thought was left in it.

ASKING $150 OBO + shipping

Not to be ignorant but how far are you from Orlando?

My sis in law is recently divorced and has no pc.
She has been looking for a cheap laptop she can use for her digital camera and internet email stuff.

I linked her to this post to see if she is interested. (Hi T! if you are reading!!!)

Anyword yet if Jas is buying it?

I can do $120 shipped via parcel post (the online calculator says it will be $15.83, but I've never managed to get the same price in the post office. I can refund you any overage if you want). Says it will be 7 days to get there. For $130 I can do priority mail which is 2 days. Let me know which one you want to do.
