Sweetness! I got WAY better than I was hoping:
Gateway 7500 Series
CPU: Mobile AMD Athlon 64 4000+
Freq: 2.6Ghz
RAM: 2GB (2x 1GB PC-4200 RAM), Expandable to 4GB RAM
100GB SATA HDD (5400RPM)
DVD+RW DL (not Dash-R
which sucks, since i use Dash-R. Luckily, I found an old +R Disc I had lying around to make the recovery disc)
Radeon Mobility X600 w/ 128MB VRAM (well..SHARED vram, but w/e)
15.1" Widescreen LCD @ 1280x800 Rez
CF Flash Port, SD Port, PCMCIA, ExpressCard 3/4 Slot, FireWire 400, USB 2.0 (8 ports), NEW BATTERY!!!
Anyways, I am happy, but I found out the screen is having the hinge issue which is common. On top of it, it seems to be pinching the LVD LCD Cable, causing the screen to turn on and off whenever the screen is moved. No big deal. Later I will go into it and fix it (There are ways to do it) which generally involves re-seating the display and tightening the hinges (easy steps)
All in all, I am happy
