FOUND: Thinkpad Dock II type 2877 (w/ PCI slot)

[user17600]

Looking for a TP Dock II (the kind with the PCI slot). Have one for the son's T42 and with a 128MB video card is serviceable for (light) PC gaming. Now the daughter wants one for her T42 (sigh).

EDIT: Fully functioning, if that's not implied :-)
