    Anyone intrested in a free laptop (it's got overheating issues)?

    So I got an HP Pavilion dv4367EA gathering dust.

    It's got overheating issues. It shuts down after a 5-20 minutes of use.

    Most parts however are only a few weeks old (they replaced most parts in factory, but the issue came back after a few weeks).

    Specs:

    cpu: 1.73 GHz Intel® Pentium® M Processor 740 Intel® Centrino® Mobile Technology 2mb cache

    ram:
    1024 MB DDR2 533 MHz (2 x 512 MB) (max 2gb)

    graphics: Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 900 (128mb shared)

    hdd: 80 GB 4200 rpm

    DVD Writer Dual Format (+/-R +/-RW) with Double Layer support

    LCD: 17" inch widescreen, max resolution 1280x1024

    Layout: azerty keyboard

    external ports:
    * 4 USB 2.0
    * 1 IEEE 1394
    * 1 VGA
    * 1 RJ-11
    * 1 S-video TV-Out
    * 1 RJ -45
    * 1 Expansion Port 2 connector
    * 1 headphone-out
    * 1 microphone-in
    * Remote control infrared port (Remote Control optional)

    pc card slots:
    * One type I or II PC card slot
    * One ExpressCard/54 slot (also supports ExpressCard/34)


    Power:
    * 65 W AC Power Adapter
    * 6-cell Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery


    You can also have the power adapter and the battery.

    You can have it for free, if you pay for the shipping.

    Do you know about how much it would cost to ship it to the US? Specifically, South Carolina?

    Also, do you have any ideas what is causing the overheating problem?

    I don't have a clue how much it costs to ship something overseas.

    In Europe it's cheap.
