SOLD: IBM ThinkPad R51 in excellent condition and still under original IBM factory 3 year warranty until February 28, 2009!

*Image links removed*

This is a very nice Intel-GPU based R51 that shows minimal wear (slight scuffs on cover and slight shine on keyboard) and is still under factory warranty. The LCD was just replaced by IBM because the backlight went out (this month) - it is perfect. I upgraded the CPU and used Arctic Silver thermal grease.

$275 delivered in the U.S. PayPal, USPS money order or cash accepted.

Just curious Ed; is this the one you upgraded with a 725a Dothan?

This isn't that unit, this one is newer. I'm almost certain that this is a 725 cpu, not the 725A.
