Up for sale is a Thinkpad Z61t laptop in excellent condition. Cosmetically at least 9.5 out of 10. The keyboard doesn't have any shine. As I briefly reviewed in this post, the Z61t is one of my favorite Thinkpads. At 4.7 lbs (or 4.35 lbs without the optical drive), its weight is intermediate between the T and the X series. Here are the specs:

Product ID: 9443-A41

Processor: 1.83GHz Intel Core Duo (T2400)

Display: 14.1" 1440x900 widescreen (very good condition)

1x1GB DDR2 RAM (with one empty slot for future upgrade)

60GB 5400rpm SATA hard drive with 8MB buffer

CD/DVD-ROM drive

Intel 802.11abg wireless

1Gb Ethernet

three USB2.0 ports

SD card reader

IEEE 1394 FireWire

Modem

Secure chip

battery in very good condition (holds 33.47 Wh, or 89.4% of original capacity)

90W Lenovo AC adapter

Windows XP Pro installed (COA sticker is gone, but this model was licensed to install Windows XP Pro)

Warranty has expired.

I offer several payment options:

1) For U.S. buyers paying with a personal check or money order, it's $510.00 shipped.

2) For U.S. buyers using PayPal, it's $525.54 (regardless of whether you draw funds from a credit card, cash or a bank account).

3) If you pick up locally, it's $490 in cash.

4) If you are outside of the U.S., it is $490 plus actual postage plus PayPal fees.

Nice machine, Kwoon. I'd like to compare it with my EEE!

Z61t's, a ThinkPad best kept secret. All the performance of a T60 (an Intel GPU model, anyway), without the weight or bulk.

Nice offering!

Welcome back PW ... how was your trip?

Just came in to say this: if PW says it is 9.5/10, you won't be able to tell it apart from a new machine used for a few hours.

Very nice...this should not last long. The screen is awsome and the unit is easy to upgrade. Great price!! BTW...it shares a lot of items (batteries, Keyboard, HD, etc.) with the T60/T61 series and would make a good addition.

PianoWizard, is that you on our local Craigslist or an amazing coincidence?

I'm very interested in your machine. If the sale with minc3d shouldn't work out, please count me in...

Wow, another Thinkpad on my wishlist. I fear I may become an addict like veyr knowledgeable people here like PW and gator.

An offtopic question, what is lighter, a Z61t with WXGA+ display versus a standard 4:3 T61
