Feeler WTB: A few things for a T42

Hey all, I've decided instead of splurging on a new T60, I'll just spruce up the old T42, she's got more than a little life left in her.

Here's what I'd like:

A bigger, maybe faster hard drive. Maybe a 5k100 or 7k60, something along those lines. I'd like to stay around 80 bucks, but could go higher or lower obviously, depending on the disk, age, etc.

A Ultrabay slim battery, new or very close to new (please report to me the number of cycles). IBM OEM only please.

A 1GB stick of PC2700 RAM. I'd like to pay $80 or less for this, since new sticks are around $90 on newegg.

and MAYBE a DVD+R, depending on the price. Not sure what these go for used, I'd only be using it for backup though, so not a high priority.

Please PM me here, or email rltelesca @t gmail d0t c0m

Thanks :)

Ryan

T42 mainboard finally getting replaced tomorrow, so I'll be looking for this stuff again.

Still haven't purchased anything, biggest emphasis right now on the speedier hard disk, and RAM.

Thanks :)
