I bought this T43p from Lenovo shortly after they were released in mid-2005. It's been my super-reliable daily driver ever since, and has been used to produce books, plays, websites, and much much more. Includes the following specs and accessories (see photos):
- Model T43p Laptop w/ Intel Pentium M 2.13Ghz CPU (full specs here: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:T43p)
Original Hitachi 7200RPM 60Gig HDD and 2Gigs RAM
IBM 11a/b/g Wireless MiniPCI + Bluetooth
DVD±RW/CD±RW Combo Drive
Lexar ExpressCard 4Gig
Viking Interworks 32Bit adaptor & an aData 32Gig Compactflash
Labtec USB V-UAM38 Webcam
Original Power Adapter & Chord plus an extra Power Adapter & Chord
Bootable CD containing a modified firmware (already applied) that eliminates the "2010 error" with non-Lenovo drives
- It has NEVER been dropped, has no case cracks, no dead pixels, no missing keyboard buttons (see photos)
This machine runs Windows 7 Ultimate very well and that's been my main OS on it for years.
It scores 3.7 on the Windows Experience Index using the following partition scheme:
Original HDD: 2 NTFS partitions of C:BOOT\ and D:DATA\
ExpressCard slot: use the included Lexar ExpressCard 4Gig as a dedicated ReadyBoost drive
PCMCIA slot: use the included Viking Interworks 32Bit adaptor & aData 32Gig Compactflash drive for on-board backups
It also has run many other OSes just fine, including Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Ubuntu (currently installed)
All original internal components, devices, and parts work just like the first day I got it
In 2010 I replaced the original Touchpad Keyboard Bezel with a brand new factory-sealed one (see photo)
In 2010 I replaced the original larger bump-out battery with a brand-new 3rd-party 4400mAH battery that fits flush (see photo)
In 2006 an authorized IBM repair center replaced the motherboard (to fix the ball-grid array problem these models can have)
