- still under IBM warranty
- CPU preferably Core 2 Duo (preferred), or alternatively Core Duo w/high Ghz
- GPU either ATI MOBILITY Radeon X1300 (preferred), or alternatively the X1400
- with Windows XP (or with downgrade rights to XP, and with XP T60 R&R media and XP COA)
- battery condition: Need not necessarily be brand-new, but should last for a few hours
-entire laptop in good to mint cosmetic condition
- LCD meeting the following requirements:
- no dead or stuck pixels (the free program Dead Pixel Buddy can be used to test this),
- no dark or light areas,
- no pressure marks,
- no light bleeding from edges,
- no dust or any hair(s) inside the LCD,
- no scratches or any other blemishes on the LCD,

Since neither my son nor I can probably afford to have this ThinkPad serviced (at our expense), I plan to extend the Lenovo-warranty for another two years; this can be done for $150, but in order to add this extension, the ThinkPad must still be in-warranty.
Ideally, something like this T60 would be perfect; fast, long remaining warranty, MINT condition!
Since my overall budget (incl. the $150 for extending the warranty for another two years) is $700-800, the T60 itself should hopefully be $550-$650. Recently, several 15” FlexView T60’s have been sold both here and on eBay in that price range, so I am confident that it should be possible to find what I am looking for. Besides, I have this forum with the greatest ThinkPad minds around to tap into for help!
Let me know if you have such a T60 for sale or any thoughts on where I might find one.
Blessings,
Sharon
It was within my price range, although on the higher end, but it has ALL of my most desired options!! I don't know who is more excited about this fantastic find and end of a lengthy search...but I think it is probably ME!
