FS/FT: The cleanest Z61m Titanium that I've seen in years, pretty loaded, LOWERED AGAIN

This is, by far, the cleanest example of a Z series ThinkPad with a Titanium lid that I've seen in many years. While there is some very superficial wear - a few small scratches and a couple of spots that are lighter than the rest of the lid - there is ZERO pitting in the clear coat and the surface is surprisingly uniform to touch. The plastics are in near mint shape, I'd rate them at 9.5 on a 1-10 scale and would give the overall grade of 9 for the machine as a whole.

There is one "flaw" with this system, and that is the fact that the original WSXGA+ LCD has been replaced with a WXGA one at some point in the past. While there's not much wrong with the current panel (one pressure mark, likely TrackPoint-related) a higher-resolution screen would make this collectable ThinkPad really shine.

***Atheros-chipped ThinkPad abgn wireless card (42T0825) will be included with the machine free of charge for those who are interested in upgrading wi-fi capabilities without flashing the modded BIOS.

I might be interested in trading this system for a X60 tablet with SXGA+ LCD, or just the LCD assembly from such a machine, fine details to be discussed...

EDIT 06/11/2017: The price has now been cut to $75 (from $100) plus shipping. Someone please take this cutie off my hands, I don't have the time to indulge in any ThinkPad projects right now...
