I have had this machine sitting around for some time now, and I'm not using it so I'm looking to sell it. I only issue with this laptop is that the battery will not charge/hold a charge. The battery was charging fine until I left a friend borrow it. So I'm unaware of what the issue is there, but I would suspect a new battery would fix the problem.
Currently I am running a 24-hour nTune (NVIDIA) stress test on the system and this will be followed by a 24-hour Prime95 stress test to ensure there are no issues with the machine.
Originally I spent over $3500 on this machine. I have all the original paper work, service paper work, original packaging, etc.
