[QUOTE="AtlBo, post: 787170, member: 32547"] If your problem is that you are lacking hardware, take a look at these (U.S. and some international shipping I believe but I didn't check) Original listing: [URL="https://www.ebay.com/itm/hp-8460p-Silver-120-gig-hard-drive-Processor-2-50GHz-8-Gigs-RAM-/273612059784?ul_noapp=true&nma=true&si=S3UEgMikC02g9MgagEfSze1DsIM%253D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557"]hp 8460p, Silver, 120 gig hard drive, Processor: 2.50GHz, 8 Gigs RAM | eBay[/URL] Contact the seller and tell him MerchantNinja (MalwareTips AtlBo) sent you to ask if he has more. He messaged me that he has several. Paid $95 (including postage $77 + $18) knowing the risk, but I have bought 10 or more used PCs on ebay with good success. Can't guarantee anyone else, but you are protected if it doesn't work. The one I received is in outstanding condition (Windows 7) other than some mild scratching on the lid. It looks great though (as you can see in the listing pictures). I'll get a stick on lid cover for that. The screen picture is phenomenal. Google HP 8460p. There are some great YouTube videos on the model which declare it one of the top two of its class for the time...very high end and durable. Plenty of processing power too...i5-2520m. Graphics seems fine too. One of the videos is 29 minutes and really helpful. Wait maybe santa isn't done yet.
