Description: Used, good overall condition Alienware Area-51 M15x gaming laptop in silver equipped with an Intel Core 2 Duo T8100 processor, NVIDIA GeForce Go 8600M GT graphics card, 250GB SSD and 4GB of RAM. Physically, this Area-51 is in good overall condition considering its age with minor to moderate signs of wear and use to the exterior and interior of the laptop. The display lid, palmrest and bottom cover of the laptop have expected wear like scratches, marks and scuffs from use. The left-hand 'Shift' key on the keyboard is split but does not affect usability. There is one screw and rubber bumper missing from the display bezel. Interested buyers should be aware that the screen hinges on this model of Alienware are known to be fragile and extreme care must taken to not damage or break the hinges and/or mounting points on the display. The mounting screws have been re-tightened to get rid of a majority of the looseness of the display. Functionally, this Alienware is in flawless condition. The CPU and GPU have been refreshed with high quality Honeywell PTM7950 thermal interface material for significantly improved thermal performance and reliability. This Area-51 will manage the heat from its high-performance components better than when new with this thermal material. The original high-capacity Alienware battery is included with the laptop and has been verified to charge and hold a charge but battery life, health and usage time is not guaranteed. The internal storage has been upgraded to a 250GB SSD for greatly improved speed and responsiveness. A fresh installation of Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 2 has been pre-installed along with system drivers, Windows updates and the latest compatible NVIDIA drivers. Some Alienware-specific drivers or software may be missing due to the unavailability of downloads for this laptop. This Alienware predates the Dell-designed models that followed it and is becoming exceedingly hard to find and even harder in fully functional condition. One lucky buyer has the chance to own and appreciate a piece of Alienware and gaming history. Includes one (1) Alienware Area-51 M15x laptop gaming laptop only. A 120W or higher AC adapter with a 5.5mm barrel is required for optimal operation and is not included. No accessories or peripherals are included or implied. No warranty is expressed or implied.
