FS: Thinkpad T61 14.1" Widescreen Nvidia Graphics w/Dock

#1 Post by CoBrA2168 » Wed Jun 26, 2013 8:42 am

I have here for sale what I would consider an almost "fully loaded" Thinkpad T61 14.1" Widescreen model. Here's a rundown of the specs of this beast of a machine:

Thinkpad T61 14.1" Widescreen model 7662-CTR running latest Middleton BIOS
T9300 CPU (2.5GHz)
2GB DDR2 RAM
100GB 7200RPM HDD
128MB Nvidia NVS 140m Graphics
14.1" 1440x900 Widescreen Display
Integrated Camera
CD-RW/DVD-RW Multi Drive
Fingerprint reader
4-in-1 card reader (RARE)
Intel 4965 ABGN Wireless
Built-in Bluetooth
4-cell battery
Windows Vista COA included and valid
Comes with docking station (P/N 42W4631) and 90W Power Adapter

Some notes about the system:
There are no dents/scratches on any of the plastic parts of this laptop. These laptops (as you probably know) are almost indestructible, but this one in particular is in great condition. The only cosmetic defect is the bottom front left of the screen's front bezel has a small crack in it. This prevents it from being fully screwed in. This causes no problem to the laptop, and is not noticeable. I have opened up this system for inspecting the insides and cleaning the CPU/GPU. It has only been opened once, with nothing missing inside. I cleaned the CPU/GPU with Arctic Cooling MX-2 paste, which significantly helped with temperatures. The system build date is June 3, 2008. The motherboard is original and has not be tampered with. The GPU is the "A2" model, and has date code 0801.

The screen is an upgrade from the original (1280x800). The screen has an upgraded resolution for more work space and also includes the integrated camera. The only problems with the screen are 2 scratches near the middle of the screen. Also the brightness on this screen isn't fully bright (this is normal with use).

4 cell battery still holds a pretty good charge. With Wifi on and the screen brightness pretty high, I can get a solid hour out of the battery.

Why am I selling this computer? As stated in the title, this PC is perfect for running the latest version of OSX (Mountain Lion) as a hackintosh computer. I followed this very guide here on these forums to get it running: viewtopic.php?f=32&t=109236&start=0 With this computer, all major functions work on OSX: CPU w/Speedstep, GPU w/acceleration, bluetooth, sleep mode (sleep and wake with no issues!), audio, brightness, etc. Read the thread for more details. Anyways, I am selling because I think it's finally time I upgrade to a real mac (sorry thinkpad community!)

Asking price: $150 (plus cost of shipping, or free local pickup)

I know I'm fairly new on this site, and I've never sold anything to this community. However, I'm an experienced online seller, as per my 100% positive feedback eBay account: http://myworld.ebay.com/linkinskt If you would like, I can send you an eBay message to verify that it is me. This laptop is pretty much fully loaded and doesn't have any major cosmetic defects. Pictures are available upon request. If you have any questions, I'll do my best to answer them here. Thanks for looking!
