A T40 has been procured, much thanks to all that provided an offer.


Currently I'm just in the looking for phase, so no serious commitments yet. :) Preferred specs as follows:

512MB of Ram (either 2x256 or 1x512, doesn't matter)
20-40GB HDD
DVD-ROM
Intenal wireless that supports WPA. 802.11b is fine as long as it can do WPA.
XGA LCD
Good working battery, the longer the runtime the better.
Windows XP Pro or Home media with COA
AC Adapter

A few shiny keys/spots here and there are no big deal. It must be a working out of the box system, no "needs repair" to get going. If I were buying for myself I wouldn't care. Well that's pretty much it, let me know what you have and your asking price and I'll relay the details and see if we have a deal. :)

Very true, I've checked out a few, but I feel better buying one from here instead. :)
