I checked with my parents. They say that we can check the check at the bank, and if the guy's account has sufficient funds, we get the cash. Once I have the cash in my hand, I will then ship the computer to him.

The worst thing that could happen is either I don't get the check or there's not enough money in his account, in which I lose nothing. This guy's got a lot to lose if the check works. Good thing I'm a nice guy and I'm going to send the computer once I get my cash.
