Jetta Jetbook 6300CD/6300CD Plus Home
The Jetbook 6300CD and 6300CD Plus are Intel Pentium and Pentium MMX based laptops, respectively. I cannot 100% confirm this due to the poor quality of Jetta's photos, but I'm about 99% sure that these laptops are rebadged AlphaTop Green 753 and Green 753+ laptops. The designs appear identical as far as I can tell, and the specs line up as well.
Common Faults & Maintenance
Assuming these systems are based off of the Green753/Green753+ laptops, I do know a couple things about them. First, the non-plus models used a proprietary 4-pin PSU that will likely prove impossible to find if you don't get the system with it, so watch out for that. The Plus models should use a standard barrel jack. The 753 apparently uses a NiMH CMOS battery of some type, so if true, it should be removed to prevent a system-killing leak. The hinges appear fairly robust. The 753 laptops (sold under various brands) show up rather frequently on eBay, and I've yet to see one with busted hinges. The hinge covers can go missing though, as they were only held on with weak clips. The plastic is likely to be rather brittle.
They use proprietary HDD connectors that required an adapter in a caddy to use, so I'd recommend against buying one that's missing the caddy.
