I have two laptops to distribute to volunteers.

The first is a 233 MHz CTX with either 32 MB of RAM. It is running Vector Linux 3.2 and has the original manufacturer restore discs and a carrying case. It is free to a good home. It has battery/charger problems. The battery will not charge (?) or hold a charge (?).

The second laptop, a Gateway with 1133 MHz cpu and 256 MB, is a better computer but also has charger problems. It is the laptop with the broken hinge we fixed with Goose's wonder glue. The system has manufacturer restore discs and runs Slackware 10.1. Foolishly, I replaced the battery to see if the problems were battery related or not. Apparently they are not. The battery is brand new. It was not charged when I booted the system today and doesn't appear to be charging now. I would like my money back for the battery, $99.00. Otherwise, I'll keep the computer a while longer.
