Here's pictures I took today: http://www.flickr.com/photos/79356951@N00/

This has been my baby for quite a while now. I must say I'm sad to see her go, but a guy's got to have priorities...and right now, mine happen to revolve around serving the country - I certainly won't need such a fantastic piece of hardware in the months to come.

I've taken good care of this machine and it's in wonderful condition. Here are the specs.

IBM T41p [Type 2373-124]
- 1.7Ghz Intel Pentium M [Banias]
- 1GB PC2700 memory
- 60GB 7200RPM HDD
- ATI Mobility FireGL T2 128MB video
- 14.1" TFT display 1400x1050 resolution
- UltraBay Slim CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo Drive
- IBM Bluetooth
- Intel PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter
- Intel 10/100/1000 ethernet
- 56K modem
- AD1981B AC'97 Audio controller
- 9 cell battery, 6 cell battery, UltraBay Slim battery
- Windows XP Professional SP2
- IBM optical mouse
- IBM USB floppy
- Currently remains under IBM warranty

I have 3 batteries for this machine + one 72W IBM AC adapter.
In addition, I have the 5 disk IBM recovery CD set made specifically for this model.
I also have the IBM optical mouse that came with it and a black IBM USB floppy disk drive to match.

This is still under its original IBM warranty. I called IBM for the status and they reported that this machine is under warranty until 03-26-2007.

I have wiped the disk and restored it to original factory state with the recovery partition in place + Windows XP Pro SP2 w/ all current patches.

I'm leaving at the end of September, and I need to sell this by that time. I have access to great laptop-specific shipping materials at work as a sysadmin.

I'm asking $1300, but as you know I am time-restricted so please make offers.
If I don't find a buyer by Sept 25th, I'll sell to the highest bidder. Please PM with questions or email me at stuart<at>unavco<dot>org and I'll get right back to you.

My eBay ID is aquanoah, please see for positive feedback rating. Thanks!

EDIT: $1200 obo. I'd much rather do this here than on eBay - throw me some offers, guys!

Exactly. The Nigerians haven't found this site (yet).

$1300 is kinda pushing it - At best its worth around $1k

You're right. And I've got other stuff going on, like selling vehicles. I'll take $1,200 obo.

if you are going to iraq or elsewhere "over there" then you might keep the thinkpad..
also, it might be worth more there than here..
your call of course..

keep your socks dry and your head down..

FYI, if you really need to sell it "soon", the right price is $800 - $900.

I sold one less than a month ago in same condition (one battery) but longer warranty on this board for $850. It sold in a few days.

Good luck.

New ThankPad's and others around your asking price are quite attractive and powerful.

I'd hold out for $1000. It's worth that much at least.
