The system currently has a extra 512MB of RAM for a 768MB of RAM i can upgrade it some more if needed so let me know what you're looking for. The Hard Drive has also been upgraded to a Fijitsu 60GB 5400RPM and still has recovery partition!!

Battery was actually "new" when i got it but i just think it needs to be reconditioned to be brought up some. It was full 2-3 months ago.

***Oh and the current 6 Cell battery has about 80% of it's original charge and yes it comes with it and an AC Adapter include for the price below, will get screenshots later***
*
Below are some items that are NOT INCLUDED but can be if you would like it to be for an additional price or purchased seperately.

Accessories:
IBM Thinkpad Dock w/4 USB ports (FRU P/N: 13R0291)
Special AC Adapter for Dock (FRU P/N: 02k7092)

Hard Drives:
Seagate 120GB 5400RPM Drive (PATA)
Wester Digital 80GB 5400RPM Drive (PATA)

Condition:
LCD = 10/10
Keyboard - 9/10 (Not sure if it's ALPS or NIMB or Chicony)
Palmrest = 10/10 - Centrino and Windows XP Sticker Good
Body = 9/10 (Few minor scratches)
Back of LCD = 9/10 (Few minor scratches)

Price: $500 (Starting there but negotiable)

Note There's one single issue i just found about it. The LCD latch on the right side is broken. The left one is still there and keeps the lid shut tho. I'm not sure if i did it or i got it that way. I'm not sure if it's fixable from Lenovo since it's still under warranty. If not then they $15 on eBay.com and i might just buy it and ship it to you. We'll see about that.

Trading: I am looking for a UltraBay HD Adapter for the T4x series. I've seen them for $14.99 plus $7 shipping and/or a Good UltraBay Battery.

Contact: IF you must PM me then go ahead but i'd much rather you email me at SHoTTa35@OpTOnline.net as PMs only generate an email anyways

And why hasn't this one been sold yet? T42 SXGA+ for $500 OBO and warranty leftover? Are you kidding me?????

This may just prove tooo tempting....

George, I agree that this is a very nice deal. It's quite similar to my T42, which is one of the three most satisfying Thinkpads I've ever owned. The T42 was the pinnacle of the T4* series. It performs better than the T40 and T41, and it's without the fan noise and hard drive issues of the T43.

well just a FYI - i have some interested parties and once i can confirm this should be gone so i guess i can just say:

**** Sale Pending ****

[underclocker]

It looks super. Does it come with the deodorant?!

[jamerslong]

How much are you asking for the Drives?

[SHoTTa35]

the drives by themselves or as an upgrade?

Well someone sent me these links:

http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDe ... e=10006055

http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDe ... e=10005073

so i figured

120GB Segate = $70 shipped
80GB WD = $50 shipped

As upgrades i can probably knock off $20 off each drive and include them there.

[jamnkats]

Is the original machine still available?

[SHoTTa35]

yes the machine is still available but might not be in a short while.

I've been a bit of a pain in the butt lately so sorry to all involved parties Just was a bit confused as to keep it or not.

[SHoTTa35]

Keep forgetting to put that this machine has been SOLD!

Thanks for looking

It would make more sense to edit the topic title so that someone does not have to open and read the thread to figure out it has been sold.
