This machine came with a Chicony keyboard, which has been replaced with an NMB unit. The NMB shows no wear and is nice and crisp; there can't be more than an hour of use on it.

The machine itself is immaculate; no dead pixels, no marks on the screen, no scratches, plastic still on the faceplates (both inside and out), all stickers intact, original boxes, manuals, etc. I've just done a full factory restore, so it's as it comes out of the box.

This is basically as loaded a machine as you could get short of a T43p model; works great, looks great, and is a perfectly intact machine.

Asking $550 shipped. I'd like to keep it in the US for now, just to make things simple. Feel free to PM questions, or you can email me at paulyosh@gmail.com. I absolutely despise PayPal, so would prefer a USPS money order (or face to face transaction in the best case). If you absolutely insist on PayPal, we can work something out...

P.S. I'll also have a fully loaded T61p for sale shortly; if you're interested, ping me about that one also...

Thanks! Some poking and prodding, but nothing solid, so dropping price to $650...

I'm not sure what happened; I replied to your PM a couple of hours after you sent it, and still have it in my Sent box. If you PM me your email address, I'll cut and paste it to you that way...

SPF = sold pending funds? C'mon, did you make that up?

Perhaps we need a sticky on marketplace abbreviations!

Sorry about that... :-( It's incredibly common on several other forums I'm on, and I guess I just forgot which was which. I'll stay away from the abbreviations from now on...

A simple Google search (like I did earlier today when I saw SPF) yields this site:

http://acronyms.thefreedictionary.com/SPF

I initially thought that the system was so bright and shiny that it needed some suntan lotion :) .

BWAAAHAAAAHAAAA...I love it.

Thanks for the explanation. I loved the comment for a sticky.

I guess I am showing my age as I don't text anymore. I ran out of patience with the abbreviations, especially when I started seeing the same abbreviations in the real business world.

Regards, Bill
