ebay (2nd hand)

Price Paid:
?200

Introduction
Made by Mitac for Packard Bell.
Good Points
Half decent processor, can pick up 2nd hand cheap.
Bad Points
BEWARE. PB won't confirm this, but there would seem to be a design fault with (the motherboard assembly of) these PCs. Many of these PC's pack in after about 16 months. Constantly coming up faulty on ebay.
The Verdict
Good if you want a cheap laptop to repair.
