You will need to plug in a real mouse for the game. Those laptops have almost every connection known: USB Firewire LAN 56k IR Parallel Printer TV Out Monitor Out Audio in and out Serial RS232 PS2 Keyboard/Mouse Mini PCI slot PCMCIA slot |

| 178185 | 2003-09-30 08:59:00 | It would be a surprise if it never has a SVHS TV out connector. Its the same looking platform as the 4315, 4316. They all have TV out. They have 2 USB ports (not sure if USB 1 or 2) as well as a PS2 port. You can use PS2 keyboard and mouse (using a Y adapter) or USB keyboard and mouse. The on-board trackpad is good, has a scroll pad as well. As to the demo being sold, not sure what you mean? They won't want to sell you the demo, as that means they have to set another demo one up. Unless that demo one is only one left in the area, and you wanted to buy it you wouldn't be offered the demo. Actually, some people do want to purchase the demo appliances/computers etc, as they at least know it works and has been "burnt in", but thats a different thing altogether, its a choice that the customer wants. |

| 178186 | 2003-09-30 09:02:00 | ur answer after "demo being sold not sure what u mean" was what i actually ment...as once he got told to take the demo comp for $500 less which was reasonable i thought but it caused him so many problems he wanted it replaced to a "brand new in box" computer...and gave them the $500...but took nearly 5 months to sort it out... thats why he was wanting me to ask if its not going to be "forced" on him to buy a lappie and its a demo version..like its been used on demostration.. so yeah if it was the only one left he'll just make them order it in or go somewhere else.. |

| 178187 | 2003-09-30 09:13:00 | Noel Leemings give you a brand new laptop in a box etc. they don't give away the demo ones. Trust me, we bought Sony Vaio laptop from them 3 weeks ago. As far as games go on a laptop, it isn't the best idea I've heard of. Limited upgrade possibilities, and not the best video cards. |
