FS: 1993 ThinkPad 750Cs in Excellent Condition

#1 Post by superme900 » Sun Jul 20, 2014 3:46 pm

Here's a good vintage ThinkPad for any collectors out there, a classic from 1993. Very similar to the ThinkPad 750C which was used on the International Space Station, the only difference being this has a passive-matrix LCD display whereas the 750C had an active-matrix TFT display.
The laptop itself is in very good condition for it's age, for the most part there are no scratches or scuffs, the keyboard is pristine with no signs of wear or shine and the TrackPoint is spotless!
However I will say that it isn't perfect; the right 'foot' at the bottom of the laptop used to prop itself on an angle is missing, the hinges feel ever-so slightly loose although they definitely work and the screen does not display an image, although the back-light does show, keep in mind that despite these small faults the laptop is 21 years old and for that age it is doing very well.
I have tested it with an external monitor and I can say that apart from the screen, the laptop is fully working and even seems to have the original factory Windows 3.1 installed on the hard drive.
As far as specifications go it has the standard Intel 33 MHz 486SL CPU, 4 MB RAM (I have an extra 4 MB card which I will include for an extra £5) and I believe a 360 MB Hard Drive, it also has the rarer 2.88 MB Floppy Disk Drive.
Note: This does not include an AC adapter nor a battery as the battery was dead and needed to be removed in order for the laptop to boot up.

So, how much for this piece of history?

£35 £30 (or £35 if you wish for the extra 4 MB RAM)
Yep, that's including postage to the UK, a pretty good deal if you ask me.

If you have any questions or wish to make a deal, message me via PM.
