Ideally with 14.1" but i'm interested with 15" as well.

If you have one please contact me.

Thanks, removed number. Is that so bad? What can worst happen?

... is there an error in the eBay listing, or has the HDD been swapped to a slower (5400 rpm) version? According to the original IBM specifications for a 2373-HSG (use the "Quick Path"), it came with a 60 GB 7200 rpm drive:

Product: ThinkPad T42p 2373-HSG [change]
Operating system: All [change]

Original description: P M 735, 1GB RAM, 60GB 7200rpm HDD, 15 UXGA(1600x1200) TFT LCD, 128MB ATI FireGL T2, CD-RW/DVD-R Multi-Burner, Intel 802.11b/g wireless(MPCI), Bluetooth/Modem(CDC), 1Gb Ethernet(LOM), Secure Chip, 6 cell Li-Ion battery, WinXP Pro

Note that it has a 15" UXGA Flexview/IPS display!!

I contacted the seller as to whether the hard drive had been swapped out, the response was...

" no the hdd is original comes with the laptop, i found the spec from ibm website, so i didn't check."

Mmm..

That laptop was to expensive i consider that T42p should not cost more than £350-£400 at this moment.

As well he was abrupt in his answers and not looking to negotiate. I might need to wait or spend more on T61p if 4:3 version becomes available in UK.
