we are throwing away (recycling) 100s of Gateway 450ROG laptops at my work. I think I gave the brokers probably over 400 in the last month. I should take a pic of those pieces of crap, but then again it would be a waste of 1s and 0s and my time.

I really hate those gateway laptops.

Whoa, you're tossing these???

Those aren't bad lappys at all... what would it take for you to send a crate of them my way?

No they suck hard core, their onboard NICs have like a 70% failure rate

when I say tossing I mean we are recycling them through a computer recycling company. Trust me you don't want any of them.

Now the 1,200 HP laptops we just got in for deployment are way nicer. We also have a bunch of gateway m-255e models running around which aren't as bad as the ROGs.

Trust me when I say that anything with more than 1Ghz is of interest to me. :p

How much are the recyclers paying per laptop?

iBuyPower Laptop, so far it works great. It's got a Core 2 Duo, so I'm happy with it (sorry for bad quality, this was taken on my phone :():

the laptop seems nice enough.... but how is a 1.73 ghz processor an upgrade from a 2.6??

The 1.73 doesn't have much higher clock speed, but the cache is better. I read that the 1.73 is a much much better processor than the 1.6, because of differences other than just the clock speed.
