That is not a bad laptop Airmack. It is slow by todays standards and cannot run the newer games but my Inspiron 8000 has been 100% reliable. I would not label it as "crap".

I believe PC Brandon posted the parts for an Inspiron 9300. I could post my Belarc report on my 8000 if you are interested. Dell's website has a special feature where you enter in your service tag number and it will tell you many things about your computer although it is not as comprehensive as Belarc.

You will pretty much only be able to sell those parts (pretty much) to someone else with a Dell 8000 laptop of that vintage or similar Dell laptop. Personally, I would keep it in one piece and sell it for a hundred bucks.
