FS: Thinkpad A31
Posted: Thu Jun 30, 2011 11:03 pm
Going through my piles of stuff and stumbled upon this old thing.
Original Description:
2652-P4U
P4-M 1.9GHz(512KB)
256MB RAM- Upped to 512MB
30.0GB HDD
15.0 XGA(1024x768) TFT LCD
8x-3x DVD-ROM
Modem(CDC)
Ethernet(CDC)
TV out
Li-Ion battery
Win2000
I'll be brutally honest, this machine has seen better days.
There is a crack by the left ultrabay eject lever and some plastic is missing.
The battery still holds a charge but looks like it has been half pried apart.
Some part of the display is going. The screen is very washed out. I don't think its the GPU because it still looks good on an external monitor. If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say the ribbon cable.
I have managed to use it by playing with the gamma and contrast.
On the plus side-
It does still work. I threw a copy of XP Home on it to make sure.
The keyboard is nearly perfect, it needs a new trackpoint head but there is no wear on the keys and the protective covering over the indicator lights is still intact.
I would also say that the hinges and palmrest are also in good shape.
You will receive the Thinkpad running WinXP Home and one ultrabay DVD drive. (No AC adapter but all adapters from Circa 1996 to 2004? are compatible)
I have absolutely no clue what this would be worth today but I am hoping somewhere in the $35 range.
Make me an offer I probably won't refuse.
(And I'm posting this on my 770X, gotta love the classics)
