From lenovo support site:
"Based on 2657-99U: PIII-M 1.066GHz (512KB), 128MB RAM, 30.0GB HDD, 13.3 XGA(1024x768) TFT LCD, 8x4x24x CD-RW, 802.11b wireless/Modem(MPCI), Ethernet(LOM), TV out, Li-Ion battery, WinXP Pro"

Upgrades:
512 MB RAM ( 2x256 )
40 GB hard drive

Problems:
1) Battery does not hold a charge
2) Internal 802.11b wireless doesn't seem to work with Ubuntu 10. ( It's a "prism 2.5 wavelan" card )

The system works fine I just don't have a use for it. I'd prefer it go to someone that wants an antique or can use it for parts.

If the wireless card is a problem; I have been using a linksys 802.11g PCMIA card that could be negotiated into the deal.
