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.

Negotiable

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
