Hakzored laptop

Ok since i picked up my mbp and dual booted it with vista i have no use for my old laptop. 1 ghz pentium M/786mb ram/intel board graphics 8599 or something/110gb seagate 5400rpm/12in screen/2lbs small notebook. Asus S5ne. I was going to give it away but everyone I know who will use it will basically use it for myspace. Those who wouldn't already have a good lappy.

Heres the question: Should i sell it with a real version of xp but with cracked programs. I "know" someone who can chuck it full of any program for free.99. Where should I sell it and for how much. One big problem is that theres no disc drive. It came with an external but that broke a while ago.

I am considering selling it for $200-$400 yay or nay? what would you do? for more specs search google for asus s5ne.

btw i wasnt planning on selling it on ebay. more like to someone who would know and not care about the programs. i am typing this on my phone and forgot to add that. i could also sell it with vista. just curious if adding more stuff could up the price or not. dont want to sell it for too cheap.

That would be about right... I wouldn't spend any more on a used laptop.
