SOLD: T40 in excellent operating and very good cosmetic condition. Upgraded CPU, memory and wifi adapter.

This machine had the loose GPU issue, but I sent it out for professional repair and it now works perfectly. See this link for much more info on the repair (and the quote below) --> http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=72974
We did a complete remove, reball and replacement of the existing GPU on the logic board. The entire GPU has new solder balls on it therefore the solder joints/connections from the GPU to the solder pads on the logic board are new.

The operating condition is perfect, no issues at all. The battery is in good shape, it lasts 1.5+ hours. There are only minor cosmetic issues, 1) keyboard shine, 2) light scuffs on the cover, 3) the LCD has a faint hot spot on the left side (see area where mouse pointer is in pictures). It is used, not perfect, but overall, the machine looks quite nice and has a bright LCD, please see pictures.

$209 plus $10 flat delivery in the U.S. PayPal, USPS money orders or cash accepted. (This machine is in very nice condition, is complete and just had the GPU reballed!)
