Okay, so I decided this was my way out of my little OCD trap because I'll be at work again in a few weeks, yay!
I saw some Alienware barebone laptops on eBay for about $300. These are new, or some are 95% new... barebone means I get everything except CPU, HDD, Keyboard, RAM and MXM graphics card.
It would be a fun little project to throw some money at and would turn my frown upside down I suppose. Now, these are the two I saw but I dunno what's the better one!

I want to know a few things...
Firstly, what CPU's do these take? I'm hoping something with a socket P that's a non-Core i5/i7 as those are a bit dear right now. As for MXM graphics card... I've been told these take the MXM 3.0 cards? Everything else is self explanatory to me.
Pretty excited about this to be honest. Money isn't a problem once I'm back at work... I just want to turn my frown upside down and get on the bright side of things and slap the best of the best of what these laptops can take so I can do some photo-shopping (I'm no gamer!). Like most of you know... I'm very familiar with laptops as I service and repair these little shits all the time.
