WTB: Under $450 Thinkpad Core Duo or better w/ warranty
Posted: Mon Mar 02, 2009 6:38 pm
Hello All,
I have a family member looking for a Thinkpad but will not spend a penny more than $450 for it. They have some fairly loose guidelines, and I am posting on their behalf since I do the tech work in the family. Here is what we need:
* Any Thinkpad model that can meet the below guidelines. Size is not of concern as it will be used at home.
* Processor must be a Core Duo or better.
* Memory doesn't matter.
* HDD doesnt matter.
* Warranty needs to be at least one year, if more, BETTER
* Screen size at least 14" (rules out the small TPADS)
* Needs to have touchpad
* Good condition, nothing beat the hell out of
* Needs to have an optical drive with a DVD-ROM at least, of course, burners are preferred
* Needs to have a working battery
* LCD with no scratches or dead pixels, please
The biggest two requirements on the list are processor and warranty; we will take those into highest consideration among offerings.
If you have a laptop to offer, please email me with photos to dwtrash (at) gmail.com and I will get back to you soon. We can only do PAYPAL payments and are located in the Chicago, IL area. Thanks everyone!
I have done some research on ebay and know that many T60s, R60s, and Lenovo N series units come in at under this price tag so it CAN be done
We are OPEN to Thinkpad alternatives like the HP business line of laptops OR Dell Latitudes as well.
