WTB: ThinkPad 755c and/or 755cd and/or 365ed
WTB: ThinkPad 755c and/or 755cd and/or 365ed
I'd like to find a 486 laptop or two, particularly interested in the ThinkPad 755c and/or 755CD and/or 365ed. Must be operable and in decent condition. Will pay fairly.
This post is good til cancelled, even if it takes a while. I will edit close it when it is fulfilled.

Re: WTB: ThinkPad 755c and/or 755cd
Hi
I managed to find a 486 755CD but it was quite a long time getting one - mainly because I think the P75 was far more popular for coping with the new multimedia era and because with second hand 30 year old ones, it can be quite hard to determine that it's a 486. The 755c is similarly but slightly less rarer for being a 'cool' early slimline 755. They do come up from time to time on ebay though (slightly more often than the 755CD). Out of interest whats your curiosity in the 486 variants of these two particular machines?
cheers

Re: WTB: ThinkPad 755c and/or 755cd
I have one 755cd listed on ebay right now. I also have another 755cd not listed because that one might go for parts as im unable to test it. Jmanz28 ebay name. Im not a dealer just came across these this past week.

Added 365ed to my interest list to expand things a bit.
