Default Lenovo IdeaPad S12 Laptop

Area: Wexford Town County: Wexford Status: Available
Have a 2009 Lenovo IdeaPad S12 laptop for anyone that wants it.

Specs are:

Intel Atom N270 CPU @ 1.6ghz
1gb RAM
160gb Hard Drive (not ssd)
Wi-Fi / Ethernet
Windows 7 Home Premium
12.1" 1280 x 800 Screen

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenovo_IdeaPad_S12 for more details of the specs.

It does have a few issues, hence why I'm giving it away as opposed to selling it:

1) The keyboard doesn't work at all. A USB keyboard works fine plugged in. Trackpad and buttons work ok.
2) The BIOS battery needs to be replaced. BIOS settings get wiped if the laptop is left with the power and battery plugged out at the same time.
3) The battery lasts around 2 hours-ish.
4) There is slight damage to the screen. A faint thin white line can be seen running down the right hand side of the screen ending in a 'bruise' just above the bezel as shown in the attached photo.
5) It doesn't have the original power brick. Comes with a universal power supply.

I'd describe it as more of a high-end netbook / low-end laptop and seems to be surprisingly snappy after a fresh install of Windows considering its pretty low specs.

This wouldn't be the ideal computer for anyone looking for a workhorse to do their school work or office work on. More something for the tech enthusiast looking for a spare pc to play with or learn about Linux and servers or something of that ilk.

Giving it away 'as-is' with absolutely no warranty or guarantee or after support provided or implied.

Available for collection only from Wexford town.
