RNLPF, Let me give you some great advice. I had a laptop of mine crash the other day (the board went bad). It had similar specs to yours. I took it apart and sold all the parts on EBAY and made about $700 off of it. So basically, you would probably make more selling it in pieces than you would as a whole. What brand and model is it?
Considering you can get a decent new one for $700-$800, I don't think so. But then again there are people on ebay that will be glad to give you the money I suppose.
