Hey guys, tnx so much for posting your replies. Lucky friend got a very good card locally from a very well-known TE member ;)
Closing this thread for now.
On the Latitude E6400, webcam IS an option. Renegade has one and it came with webcam, IIRC.
Fingerprint reader has to be ordered and cannot be added as after market fitment i think, coz it comes integrated on the keyboard surface.
Only Latitude E5500 comes with a serial port, IIRC. I dont think any other manufacturer offers serial ports anymore. Other option would be to check if the docking station on some laptops carry legacy serial/parallel ports. Need to research.
OT
integrated webcam is 'optional' in the E6400. U'll have to specify while ordering, i guess.
On the other hand, webcam is not available on the E5400/E5500, AFAIK.

A good friend needs a AGP 8X card. Looking for a decent performing card that would run one-gen-old games at 1024x768 low/medium settings.
Budget is 2k. May stretch if the GPU is worth the extra money. Card should be shipped to B'lore. Would need atleast testing warranty.
