FT: Trading my T500 (WSXGA+, hybrid GPU) for a 4:3 T60
Posted: Wed Aug 25, 2010 11:44 pm
I've got a T500 in good condition that I've been using as my main laptop for less than a year now. Although I like many aspects of it, I'd like to trade it for a 4:3 ThinkPad, specifically a T60.
Here are the specs:

I've replaced the keyboard with the best of the T60 FRUs (yes, the nice clicky one with a solid backplate), although I think I may have the original lying around somewhere if you really, really want a flexy one. 
I'm looking for a 14.1" T60 with the following:
1) Excellent cosmetic condition. The newer-looking the better. Given the rest of the fairly minimal requirements, I'm hoping for something that looks new.
2) Intel graphics
3) (Ideally) Core 2 Duo, although Core Duo wouldn't be a deal-breaker.
4) (Bonus) IBM markings all over, w/ no Lenovo badge on screen bezel (although I'm obviously not going to reject any offers on this basis alone!)
If you've got a machine you're interested in trading, just let me know.
I'll consider most any offer, so even if you don't have exactly the machine I'm after, let me know what you have and we might be able to work something out. (Acquiring/upgrading/refurbishing/using/trading ThinkPads is a hobby for me, so I don't have strict requirements.)
Cheers,
Rob
