T9300 (2.5GHZ, 6mb L2 Cache)
3GB Ram (1GB and 2GB sticks)
SXGA+ (1400x1050)

I will also like to say that I only moved this laptop for about one year for studying. Since then, it's sat in my room on top of an Antec Cooling Fan for as long as I can remember.
Asking price is $350 OBO. Please PM me for questions or negotiations.
Thank you!

There has been an overwhelming response. Instead of replying to each PM, I will post pictures here. There is one user that I have been communicating with so I will give him first dibs.
Of further note, I have not replaced the motherboard or graphics card. I have not replaced anything. I only added a 2GB stick upon receiving the laptop. I don't know if it's cause I have been using LED lit laptops lately, but the screen definitely is not as bright. There is some wear and tear of the first "coat" of pain on the sides. Also, there is a small crack on the screen case, but does not affect the integrity of the laptop. It is very minor. I will post pictures of it on Monday once I'm back in town.
Thank you all!
Also, any advice on choosing a buyer? I'll be fortunate if it comes to that.

Whoever was the first one to offer you the full asking price, should get it.
Or else the person with the best offer (OBO) NOT OVER the asking price (see the Rules).

That's your decision. No one elses.
You want to be fair. But.....if you want top dollar, go for the gusto....
It's your laptop and will be your money. Just stay within the Forums Rules...
Good luck,
Ron

That is generally true, however the seller should exercise caution in choosing any buyer that he cannot verify identity and reputation via some type of online credentials...either EBay, Heatware, or here in the 'Positive Feedback' thread -

The same advice would apply to any buyer. This particular seller, while a member here for 2 years has very few posts and no sales.

Yeah, I have not been an active user at all. I'm now a second year med student so I generally stopped looking through forums and reading up on stuff. I used my 10 in netbook more than the Thinkpad.
Anyways, I'll try to post pics tomorrow. Thanks for the advice!

Sorry everybody...
After much debate, I decided to keep the Thinkpad. $350 isn't a lot of money and it still works very well (I even played a tad bit of Starcraft II) on it. Unless someone gives me an offer I cannot refuse (which I doubt), I will be keeping this laptop. It's aged but still runs faster than my ultraportable.
