Hi guys,
I am new here:)
I have a IBM Thinkpad 701C 10th anniversary model(2002) for sale, ultimately limited edition to celebrate the 10th anniversary(2002) of the Thinkpad and only released in Japan!!!
My dad was served in IBM JP for decades, in the birthplace of all the Thinkpad--the Yamato Lab, he had the honor to get one, It is BRAND NEW and unassembled!!!
This model is not for public sale, you can only get it if you win it from a lottery etc.that's why very few people know it existed.
The material is made from the actual ThinkPad computer which has been recycled.
The Butterfly Keyboard action has been replicated!!!

Here are some pictures (link below)

the Ebay link is here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/292310356848?s ... 1558.l2649

Although it wasn't been public sold, the significance for me is outdistanced the price.
Thank you:)
Best Regard.

It was bidding on eBay for something like 50$ I think.

The efficiency of two screens equally sized with equal numbers if pixels are equal. The time spent by a 4:3 user complaining about 16:9 is proportional to the inefficiency working with a 16:9 display, therefore the amount of useful work extracted is equal.

I have one of these, too. Unopened. I paid $80 for it on eBay about a year ago. One comes up on eBay every once in a great while.

I'm no CAD-genius or something, but I do work in CAD for some big couple of years. The only issue is that I do not own one :)
Too many thinkpads not enough time!
