Re: HELP to identify this Thinkpad Model
The model number should be on the bottom right of the screen bezel next to the hinge. Your photo is fuzzy so I can't read it

Re: HELP to identify this Thinkpad Model
The machine is a G40 Thinkpad, a huge desktop replacement Thinkpad from 2003-2004
Given the machine is relatively stock, it will be rocking:
A desktop Pentium 4 or Celeron
A 14.1" 1024x768 TFT LCD in your model
128MB-256MB of RAM, but potentially upgraded to 2GB
20-60GB HDD but also potentially upgraded.
3.5" 1.44MB Floppy drive and a non-removable CD-ROM/DVD-ROM or CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo drive. Take a look at the optical drive and it will say what it is.
10/100 Ethernet, a modem, and possibly A/B Wifi, but you machine appears not to have Wifi.
More about this machine:
This machine was a short lived run of the G-series, consisting of the G40, 41 and the ever so rare G50. The 40 and 41 were nearly identical, just a model year update for better processors and slightly better specs on the 41. The 50 was an extremely rare machine that was only sold overseas and features a desktop Core Duo chip, but otherwise identical. These machines are heavy, as they are desktop replacements with POWER HUNGRY chips(especially the P4 in the 40 and 41), giving them bad battery life and run very hot. They were not high-end machines in their time from the lack of standard memory, FlexView display options, UltraBay or dedicated graphics. They were sort of a successor to the A-series machines in their bulk and processor but the performance went to the T4xp machines, mainly the 15" T42p and T43p with their FlexView graphics(they were the successor to the low end A20e - A31 machines, very close to the A20m).They are known for having a special power cable that is yellow specifically for the G machines(that Lenovo definitely didn't repeat for the W70x machines) and that the G series is one of the last machines to retain full size parallel and serial on-board the machine with no adapters, making them useful for running old scientific and machining equipment that needs it. They are also the last series of machines to retain the 3 spindle layout and the internal floppy, again, an homage to the A series machines. Also being one of the last was one of the last to be trackpadless, atleast on the bigger machines(The X200 was the last standard w/o, and the X201 was last optional w/o a trackpad) If you need a P4 machine that is compact compared to a tower, and don' t need superb graphics, this machine would be pretty good at that task. If you can get a G series 15" bezel with the correct cable, you can get a good Flexview panel in there with a high end P4 and make it a rockin' machine.
Not sure what more info you could need about this machine, so hope it helps.

Thinkpad4by3's Law of the Universe.
The efficiency of two screens equally sized with equal numbers if pixels are equal. The time spent by a 4:3 user complaining about 16:9 is proportional to the inefficiency working with a 16:9 display, therefore the amount of useful work extracted is equal.

I think it's the same power cable and power brick used by the Thinkpad Mini-Dock (type 2878).Thinkpad4by3 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 06, 2018 3:27 pmThey are known for having a special power cable that is yellow specifically for the G machines

Re: HELP to identify this Thinkpad Model
That makes sense. The docks I picked up came up with those AC adapters and I was wondering where these G-series AC adapters came from?dr_st wrote: ↑Fri Sep 07, 2018 1:17 amI think it's the same power cable and power brick used by the Thinkpad Mini-Dock (type 2878).Thinkpad4by3 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 06, 2018 3:27 pmThey are known for having a special power cable that is yellow specifically for the G machines
Re: HELP to identify this Thinkpad Model
Looks like a low-end 14.1" G40, as Thinkpad4by3 mentioned. If you are interested in buying that machine, I would suggest swapping its processor for a 533MT/s Pentium 4 3.06GHz or a 400MT/s Pentium 4 3GHz. Do get the 533MT/s Pentium 4 3.06GHz if possible though, the 400MT/s Pentium 4 3GHz is very difficult to find.
If anyone thinks the G40 can't utilize a 533MT/s Pentium 4, please do give this webpage a look.
Not a correction, but the G50 isn't very rare (link1, link2) as I thought. That is if you do look into yahoo.auctions (Japan-only), it seems to pop up occasionally on that website.

Correction: Intel did not release a desktop variant for the Core Duo, only the Core 2 Duo and the Core 2 Quad had their desktop variants released.Thinkpad4by3 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 06, 2018 3:27 pmThe G50 was an extremely rare machine that was only sold overseas and features a desktop Core Duo chip, but otherwise identical.

The G40, G41, and G50 do not have a serial port, for some strange reason.Thinkpad4by3 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 06, 2018 3:27 pmthat the G series is one of the last machines to retain full size parallel and serial on-board the machine with no adapters
