How is a motherboard for an A30, a31 and/ or an A31p when they are two seperate animals? I desperatly need one for my A31P not A30 or A31 So how is this amazon product advertising for all three: look here: https://www.amazon.com/IBM-ThinkPad-A30 ... B002N8C55U

That seller is likely selling a low-end A30 or A31 board.

That is an A31 board, 32 MB not 64 found in A31p.

Real tested working A31p board is not an easy find.
