    Try eBay or Advertes.ie for selling the unit. I doubt you will find anywhere willing to trade it in. Why exactly do you want to get rid of it? What is it that you want it to do that its doesn't?

    Basically it's 17" with is not very efficient for lugging around into college every day. It's becoming increasingly more important that i have it with me most of the time.
    So id be interested in buying a smaller more up to date unit...

    Would you consider getting a seperate netbook for college work? You probably wont get a great deal of cash for the laptop now second hand unfortunately, might be worth hanging on to it and using as a desktop replacement.

    Whats the exact spec of the machine or the service tag? The fact its in warranty is good as this can be extended by the new owner too (at a cost obviously) but without the specs its had to put a valuation on it.
