The workroom cleanup continues...

I'll never get to these two guys, so I'm offering them here first, in hopes that someone will have the time that I'm sorely lacking to get them to become what they should be...

unit # 1 : 2653-H4U

P4-M 1.7GHz (512KB), 512MB RAM, 15.0 UXGA(1600x1200) TFT LCD, 8x4x24x/8x CD-RW/DVD, Modem(CDC), Ethernet(CDC), IEEE 1394, TV out, Li-Ion battery, Win2000 COA - on hold

unit # 2: 2654-MU3

Based on 2653-R3U: P4-M 2.0GHz, 512MB RAM, 15.0 UXGA(1600x1200) TFT LCD, 16x10x24x/8x CD-RW/DVD, Modem(CDC), Ethernet(CDC), Secure Chip, IEEE 1394, Li-Ion battery, WinXP Pro COA

None of these will come with a hard drive (caddy and cover will be included) or AC adapter.

Physically, both of them are in fine condition for units of this vintage, will boot and load OS with no problems, be it from hard or media drive. I haven't been able to detect any GPU issues on either of them, however:

a) Both of the LCDs are red on cold boot. One clears really fast, the other one takes a while.

b) Charging circuits on both units have issues. Consider these to be inexpensive desktop replacements (at best) unless you're up for board-level repair.


PM or email me directly to tataslonATaol.com with any questions/concerns.

I'd like to add that the A31 line is one of the best IBM thinkpads ever made. I have one on my desk that runs 24/7 and has been running virtually non-stop since 2001. I've upgraded the ram and replaced the harddrive once, other then that it's never had any problems, and it has seen extremely heavy use... there are no letters left on most of the keys, yet the keyboard still works, the screen is very bright and pixel perfect. Perhaps one of the most dependable computers I've ever owned.

Good luck with your sale George :)

Bump.

I also have just about every part imaginable for the A3x range apart from a fully functional motherboard - feel free to inquire.

If you have a trade to offer, feel free to do so...
