FS: T60/61 Frankenpad 15", SXGA+, Intel GPU - $200

[Medessec]

For sale here is an Intel-GPU T60/61 Frankenpad that I made to keep with a 2503 Dock. I really don't need it anymore and figured someone could use it as a good base for experimenting with Frankenpadding, or an easy way to T61 power in a 15" 4:3 chassis.

The laptop itself is in good condition, aside from a cracked corner on the front right. It exists as a chip on the palmrest plastic, and a completely cracked off portion of the bottom bezel about half an inch in size. The screen lid also has a crack in it. Both these flaws do not immediately affect the integrity of the laptop, although are definitely defects that you need to be alerted to. Other than that, the keyboard, palmrest, and other plastics(including bottom) are in very good shape. Little wear and no residue, or scuffing to report. The lid has some usual wear and tear from carrying in backpacks, etc, noteworthy is that the lid still has the ThinkVantage branding sticker on it.

The laptop is a T60 15" chassis, Type 1953-DAU(Intel GPU T60) with a T61 14" 4:3 motherboard transplanted into it. The motherboard gives the Type ID "8895-2FU" which basically indicates it's current hardware outfit, aside from the T60 15" chassis and screen.

Specs:
-Intel Core 2 Duo T7300 2.0GHz
-4GB RAM
-Intel GMA X3100
-1400x1050 SXGA+ 15" Flexview
-CD-RW/DVD combo
-Intel 5100 Wi-Fi
-Middleton BIOS installed

Despite the lower spec configuration and the cosmetic flaws, this is a properly assembled Frankenpad- using a 4:3 14" T61 board installed to allow all original functionality to remain preserved, with the obvious exception of the modem. Hard Drives, UltraBay devices, docking, and all ports on the exterior function perfectly fine just as they would with an all-original T60. The screen doesn't glitch out or have any resolution/brightness problems, and is in good condition(bright, no dead pixels or spots). The cooling is a T61 Intel GPU cooler, the one that ran with the motherboard in the T61 it was originally sourced from. The fan is dead silent and runs nicely, and there is AS5 thermal paste on the CPU.

This laptop is available in a strictly barebone fashion. It will not come with a battery or hard drive, but I can include a power adapter if you need one. I'm asking $200 for the unit. I'll see if I can post some pictures when I get the chance.
