Falcon Northwest 17" laptop  
-AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual CPU  
-2GB Ram  
-2 75GB hardrives (RAID controller built in)  
-2 DVD RW drives  
-Built in card reader (CF, SD, MMC, etc.)

Only bad is the battery is dead. New ones can be bought for around $75.

System has been well cared for. Hasn’t been used much recently due to my schedule. Will be formatted before sale.

Looking for $700. Will include Targus bag with laptop.

For another computer… not really. I’ve got more PCs than I know what to do with.

Its Falcon Northwest, a custom system, hence the reason you can’t find anything similar. I know that wifi b/g is built in. I have to double check on the GPU but I know its pretty beefy considering the age of it. I know it handles HD video pretty well as it played the original HD video of Onyx’s NYSpeed Vol. 1 DVD without a hitch.

how old is this machine? seems like a decent system/company from what I’ve read.

lmk on the GPU… deff. insterested. Is it an SLi setup? it seems to be most of what they offer these days, but that’s with Intel Core2 chips… can’t find much on the AMD books

any dead pixels or anything?

GPU - GeForce Go 7800 GTX  
HDD - Seagate ST980825AS x2  
DVD - Pioneer DVD RW DVR-16 x  
LAN - MiniPCI wireless 802.11g and Realtek RTL8169 Gigabit Ethernet  
Built-in 1.3 megapixel camera

No dead pixels on the LCD. The laptop was purchased in early 2006 from [Falcon Northwest](http://www.falcon-nw.com/) as a custom PC. The closest thing I can find to a model number is DR6800.
