When I got this system, it wouldn't power on at all. I called Lenovo who sent a tech out and replaced the motherboard. We discovered there had been minor spillage inside. The tech went ahead and replaced the motherboard because the spillage hadn't reached the motherboard (would've voided the warranty). I've powered the system up and have been running Windows 7 on it with no problems. I did not do a complete test on it as it just had a new motherboard put in and any problems will be covered under warranty. The keyboard works fine so I'm convinced that the spillage doesn't have any lasting effects.
The LCD looks good with very minor 'lightness' on the bottom of the LCD (it's not noticeable except people on this forum have sensitized me to LCD issues). There are no dead pixels - the LCD surface is clean. The casing itself is 'used' with minor marks, etc - nothing major except on the lid. There was a sticker that I removed and left some residue that appears to be permanent. I removed several stickers from the keyboard bezel that have minor residue.
This system comes with a Vista Business 32-bit COA (according to the Lenovo specs). I can read the product key but the 'Vista Business' part has been worn off. I don't have any spare SATA hard-drives to load the preload on - but I could purchase one and load the preload if you wanted (I have the recovery CDs but I won't sell them nor copy them).
The price includes shipping to the USA. Shipping to Canada is $10 more - to Europe is $30 more. I use the US Postal Service. In the past, several people have asked me to record a lower value when shipping outside of the USA. I know this affects the tax when receiving the systems. Though I understand and sympathize with this situation, I must be honest when recording the value just as I try to be completely honest when describing the systems I am selling.
Price: $299 shipped
I have debated keeping this for myself except I need the cash and have a number of T42/T43 systems that do very well for me anyway. If you feel the price is too low, please let me know and we can negotiate -
. I want to sell this at a fair price. Bob
