    I bid on a Dell laptop on ebay recently. I was happy with everything on the spec, but there were two specs I don't really understand:

    Modem:MOD,MDM,CBL/TLAD,EMEA,NTH

    Video:MOD,CRD,GRPHC,VID,AVER TV TNR

    Any ideas? I just want to make sure that if I get it, I get everything on the spec.
    Cheers!

    Turns out that this
    AVER TV TNR
    is a Avermedia TV card.

    No clue what the other stuff is though, and judging by the lack of response neither does anyone else!!

    Well its a grouping system used on Dells. They proably typed in the service tag and slapped up whatever was returned. My guesses on these:
    MOD - modified/Modification
    CRD - Card
    GRPHC - Graphics
    VID - Video (allows TV out)
    AVER TV TNR - Avermedia(brand)

    MDM - modem
    CBL/TLAD - no idea
    EMEA - no idea
    NTH - (Brand) no idea

    Best thing is get the service tag and enter it into the Dell site. Will give you all the details.

    Any chance of a link to that, looks awfully confusing. I hope the seller is a decent one.
