    They are a fine laptop, brother has one, last of the Centrino range before they went Dualcore. Avoid the Celeron models, they are a pig with games & file crunching. I have the 9400 version, looks very similar but is Core Duo.

    In that case it'd be a good buy, if the spec is right, it should last you. I have the 6400 which is the newer version of the 6000, not much difference at all in design and it's lasted/lasting the test of time. 3+ years at this stage. Typing on it now btw:pac:

    Do you know where I could get one for that price without using Ebay and gumtree.ie?

    I'd be looking at adverts.ie and the likes buy and sell etc. I'd definitely want to see it before parting with cash. And confirm it works.
