Physically in good condition with minimal wear/tear. I've had Ubuntu loaded on it since I got it, but it has a XP home COA on the bottom. Also, this system has the extra mini-PCIe slot and antenna for a 3G card.

Actually, if you can drop the extra details on the list for the XSi that 
would be awesome, because I'd like to have a DSLR to get into some real 
photography without blowing a lot of money on something new (assuming 
the used price is actually lower than the cost of a new DSLR?).  I have 
no idea what to offer for some thing like this.  Is there an amount your 
are shooting for?  If you'd rather respond with price in private, that's 
fine, too.

BTW, is the Dell mini 9 an Intel GMA 950 device?  I just found a 
linux-compatible GMA950 clock boosting program online (like, I literally 
tried it out on my HP Mini 1030NR).  It actually seems to make the 
graphics respond faster than they did before it was enabled.  I don't 
have any need for another netbook, but whoever picks it up might be 
interested.
