Here is a laptop I recently acquired with no PSU, but it uses the same 19V PSU from my Acer ES1-512

Not much going on on the top and bottom, at least you can remove the battery without taking apart the machine, unlike my other Acer Laptop

The battery removed

Ports-wise, on the left there's the Kensington lock, power, VGA, Ethernet, HDMI, and USB2

On the front is the mic, headphone, and a SD card slot

On the right are two USB2's and the DVD/CD writer

The keyboard with the mic, touchpad, and indicator LED's

There is a web-cam above the screen and one of those annoying touch-pads where you scroll along the edge rather than with two fingers

Using the PSU from the Acer ES1-512 it boots very slowly into Windows 7. Honestly, it took forever

It will need a re-install as it's almost unusable at the moment, I'll probably install Xubuntu as that's my distro of choice at the moment

It has an AMD Athlon II P320 Dual-Core Processor running at 2.10GHZ with 2 GB of RAM and it still took several minutes to open this page
