WTB: G41, 15" SXGA+, pentium powered, Nvidia card,

#1 Post by ajkula66 » Sun Oct 14, 2007 5:19 pm

I've developed a sort of liking for the G4 series now that I've had a G40 in my house for a few weeks...

What is a must:

- G41 model
- Pentium-powered, no Celerons please
- nVidia video card, whether 64Mb or 128Mb
- 15" SXGA+ screen

What I can live without:

- memory, HDD, battery, AC adapter

Condition of the screen is important. No major blemishes, please.

Condition of the machine is not that important. I can live with cracks, sticker residue and wear in general.

Please PM with offers. Will pay a reasonable amount for the right machine.

Thanks, Steve.

I've seen that one but that's an XGA...apart from other issues that I'd gladly play with if it were a SXGA+...

Carlos,

That's not expensive, that's highway robbery...

One of the other "refurbishers" sold the identical machine last week for $550, and their prices are not really bargain basement...

I may be insane, but this is...

Anyway, thanks for the laugh! :D

Is it possible that no one around here has one that they got bored with and are dying to upgrade...?

:D :D :D :D :D

There's a G40 w/ SXGA+ and 3GHz P4 on eBay here, but with integrated graphics and, of course it's a G40 and not a G41. I'll continue to keep an eye out, but it could be a while before something arises. G4x laptops around here are rare commodities.
