Hi guys - couldnt find a decent UK forum with trades in it so I figured i'd post here 
I've now finally come around to Mac after getting my free G4 PowerMac just before christmas. It's been chugging along with it's little 300mhz, and now I've decided to get rid of my PC and Laptop and get some lovely Mac goodies. PC has already gone, but rather than sell my laptop I wanna see if I can trade it.
From a website:
The high end Vaio K315S incorporates the powerful Pentium 4 3.06GHz processor, DVD+/-RW drive and ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 64MB graphics to create a completely independant work platform capable of desktop level performance.
Intel Pentium 4 3.06GHz Processor
512MB DDR SDRAM
40GB Hard Drive
DVD+/-RW Drive
15.4" WXGA Screen
ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 64MB Graphics
On Board 10/100 LAN Adaptor
56k V.92 Fax / Modem
Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Pre-Loaded & Sony Vaio World software bundle (see above for details)
As you can see, it's pretty high spec'ed. This was bought about a year ago, and has barely been touched since as I accidentally left it behind when I went to Uni. No scratches, no marks, no dead pixels. You could literally walk into a shop and buy this and think it was brand new. The only slight gripe is I think the battery needs replacing (ex-display model so was always on) as it only seems to hold charge for around 90 minutes. It comes in the box, with everything, and usually retails around the £850-£1000 mark.
I'm looking to swap it for a similar Powerbook or iBook, preferably a 12" but i'm not too fussy. Doesnt need to be as highly spec'ed obviously, but would like it as good as poss.
If you have anything like this post some specs and condition of the machine and I'll let you know.
Many thanks!
