The usb bridge on my usb just burn.
now only connect as usb 1.0 :(

Currently using a T41 with Dothan CPU.

I have also a complete T40 - XGA 1G 30G DVD for sale ( T40 motherboard has GPU issue ). I could switch it for a good T4 motherboard.

thanks

I just stumbled over this eBay auction which ends in 4 hours. The seller however only ships to USA and Canada, but if you happen to have friends somewhere there, maybe this could perhaps be an option? It has happened to me a number of times on eBay, that my bid has been rejected, since I am also outside of USA. In such case, you may have to find an "allied" ThinkPad'er in the USA or Canada, who will be kind enough to bid on behalf of you, and ship the item on to Australia. T42p mobo's frequently go up to $200 on eBay...

Just a hint, which I unfortunately don't know how interesting/useful really is...
