Dell Latitude CPx Refurbished at Amazon

This refurbished Dell Latitude CPx is with Pentium III 650Mhz Mobile Processor.

Dell Latitude CPx Description:

The Dell Latitude CPx is extremely well equipped, boasting a 650 MHz Pentium III processor with 256 MB of memory, a 12 GB hard drive (specially shock mounted to reduce the possibility of damage if dropped), and a 14.1-inch TFT screen with a resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels.

Along with the basics, the unit comes with a 6x DVD drive in a hot-swappable bay. Other options include a 24x CD-ROM drive, a 4x CD-RW drive, a second (up to 18 GB) hard drive, a floppy disk drive, and a second battery. While you can swap out one of the drives (or the battery) from the bay to use the included floppy drive, you can also connect it externally through an included cable.

Other notable features include an S-video out port, in case you want to run a presentation to a VCR or TV monitor, and a pair of PC card slots (CardBus and Zoom Video support). It has one USB port and an SVGA out port. The battery is lithium ion, providing long-lasting life even on short charges.

While some newer notebook models have tried to incorporate the type of one-touch controls for starting programs that newer desktop keyboards now sport, Dell has pretty much left the Latitude’s keyboard layout alone, with one exception. With this system you have three choices of pointing-device support–you can attach a standard mouse or tablet to the unit’s rear serial or PS/2 ports, or you can use one of the two devices embedded in the keyboard and shelf.

The unit is relatively light in weight (6.74 pounds with battery and DVD-ROM drive installed) and well within the upper range of notebook computer size at 1.77 inches thick, 12.55 inches wide, and 9.94 inches deep.
