Thinkpads Forum

Hi !

I am planning to buy X200 soon. I am getting the following specification & price quote:

LENOVO ThinkPad X200 7455-D8G Core2Duo P8700 2.53Ghz/12.1"WXGA/Camera/ UBx200 ,DVD Multiburner/2GB/320GB+2GB Intel Turbo Memory/BT/FPR/Vista Business + XP Recovery Media

$1,550

I have requested a DOS version of X200, and I hope Lenovo still makes them. I would install XP or Ubuntu on it. Wouldn't mind the price going down because of not buying Vista Business as well What do you guys think? Are these specifications fine? I 'll be using my x200 mostly for business but also for surfing the net for personal use.
Thanks!

W-LAN?
Battery?
Warranty?

W-LAN : I 'll get back with the exact specification on this one
Battery: 6 cell
Warranty: 3 years CCI principal warranty only hardware parts

I am negotiating on the price front as well, and hope to get approx $ 150 to $ 200 discount Please let me know if I have missed out on any configuration, and I shall ask the same from the distributor before buying.

Wireless is N-Draft Wireless

Intel 5100 or 5300?

Network/Wireless: Intel Wi-Fi Link 5300 (802.11 a/b/g/n)

Hi !
My distributor has mailed me that my X200 has an "UBx200" included in the price quote. I don't know the full form of "UBx200". Is it an Ultrabase for X200? Someone please let me know what "UBx200" stands asap before I place the order. Thanks in advance!

Yes, that would be the Ultrabase. And it has a DVD-burner installed.

Thanks andykrej !
