I would use the high speed connection. If they haven't secured their network they sure as hell don't know how to monitor ANYthing you do....

And you can turn on your firewall to boot...........

I think you got a good deal at 450. I bought several of those for work in oct of 05 they were 1800 +. I think you did ok. Your config (mem, hd ect) is good.

I would check out your battery's serial # at https://www.dellbatteryprogram.com/Identify.aspx

All of the d410's that I have have a bad battery in them. It is very important to get it replaced, as it could catch fire. There is a defect in the design that a shock or vibration can cause fire. If you do have a recalled one, make sure to send your old one back so it is out of your hands.

You can get a usb keyboard if you find it too small to type on.

Those also usually have dial up modem and a network port so you can plug into whatever connection you have.

Enjoy.

Thanks, I just checked the battery and they said no need for replacement.

Only stealing if you had to crack a wep code to get it, it is open and free shame on the owner for not finding out how to secure it.
