    This is an office laptop that i gave to one of my employees who i have recently dismissed, there is nothing wrong with this laptop it just needs a charger, which needs a charger due to he stole the charger childishly. If you take it to any computer dealer they will be able to provide a charger no problem. Windows Xp, its fast relaible and has never had a problem whats so ever. comes with all neccisary paper work ...

    With a discription like that I wouldnt go near the thing.

    Will have to read the rest of the entry when I get home. The link isnt exactly work friendly!

    What if it was a stolen laptop? :eek: I assume there was identifiable info.

    Edit: I see it comes with paperwork.

    now he'll get even more known as a scammer.

    What if the laptop actually did get stolen from some lad, who is the guy on the website.

    Man id hate to be that guy either way.

    Seems the papers and radio have boosted the viewing of the page.

    Update:
    Clearly, someone doesn't see the funny side. A Scotland Yard spokeswoman said Barnet police are investigating a complaint made on 29 May at Fulham police station regarding improper use of a public electronic communications network. She added: "The allegation follows from a civil dispute. No arrests have been made and inquiries continue."
