Alienware M17x R4 Laptop

Hayden from Carterton District

Works fine but due to a hardware upgrade, the battery would drain, even with using standard 180W charger. However I have been able to possess a 240W charger which charges the battery well. Plays well. NOTE: due to prolonged use, a part of the keyboard (around the D key area) was permanently damaged and I have been unable to obtain a replacement. You can use a second keyboard to work around this. PC specs are as follows:

CPU: Intel i7-3630QM 2.4GHz (up to 3.4GHz)
GPU: Nvidia Geforce GTX 980M (was a 660M before the upgrade)
RAM: 16GB DDR3 (off the top of my head)
HDD: Can't remember but I think it was 1 or 2TB
OS: Windows 7

I will also provide a DefenderPad free with the negotiative price, which is a radiation absorber for beneath the laptop. Both 180W and 240W chargers will be provided.

Selling due to not being used and have upgraded.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
