Sorry, had a family emergency so have to try selling again. First person to shoot me a pm gets it. Thanks.

This sale is for the Thinkpad Model X61 (76757KU). I purchased this last June but decided I want to try another laptop brand. The machine is in excellent condition except for very minor wear. The machine was used mostly at home and there is not a single scratch on the casing. Even the corners of the rubberized lid are in perfect condition. The screen was protected with a screen protector since day so there are no dead pixels or scratches on the screen. Warranty is until 2008-05-28. A picture is available upon request. DOES NOT come with ultrabase and the dvdrw drive (will be sold separately). Asking $ 850 shipped.

Hi and thanks for the post; just a few questions.

1.: Is this system a 1.8 or 2.5 " HDD?

2.: Did you buy direct from IBM or?

3.: IBM's machine type configuration for the number you specified doesn't list a 120GB HDD. Was this a special request when you purchased or did you upgrade it yourself?

Thank you.

the 7675-7KU is configured from the factory with a 120GB 5400RPM 2.5" SATA HDD. please see this page at ibm.com for reference.

Ooops, 'mea culpa'- correction on #3: I checked, and I read too fast; it does list a 120 gb 5400rpm hdd.

#1 still stands though; is it a 1.8" or 2.5" hdd?

Thanks.

the only thinkpads that use 1.8" PATA drives are the X4x-series. all X6x series use 2.5" SATA drives.

thanks Erik.
I tend to scan messages, since I'm not supposed to be 'browsing' on company network.
I'm considering making a counteroffer.

Sorry, i was not checking this forum for a couple of days.

Thanks Erik for your help with the responses.

For the other questions:

Hardrive is 2.5 Sata 120 gb.

I am the original owner of this thinkpad. I purchased it directly from buy.com.

Sorry, I will only ship within the continential US. I had a bad overseas experience before.

PM sent. I'll take it if no one else is.

FWIW, shipping to europe or malasia is easy..
only thing is you need to have good funds BEFORE shipping..
good funds is usually a bank wire..

i too was screwed on a sale to a scam artist in jakarta..
i beat him but it still cost me shipping back..
point is, don't take a credit card..
ONLY a bank wire..
