What's going on with it, man?

Might be able to help you out with it, or take it off your hands.

well this time its just the wall charger that broke, so i have a new one in the mail. i wouldnt be able to sell you this thing and keep a clear coincious. the screen has a red line that runs down it that wont go away and it over heats a couple times a day while its just sitting on my desk. my next laptop will be a Dell for sure.

EDIT: oh and the keyboard and mouse pad randomly stop working, or it will shange what letters are what. you can ask john how many time ive sent him some weird *** messages and restarted right afterwards. LOL.
