Holy shit, that is a great deal regardless of where in the world you are. How'd you get it so cheap?
It had a dead battery. Didn't hold charge at all when you unplugged it. On the second hand market, that makes this laptop 'faulty'.
Dang, lucky you! Though also what in the world did the previous owner do to it to kill the battery so dead in just 3 years.
How is a laptop with a dead battery usable for school? Do they spend the whole time in a single classroom which has sockets?
