Specs: 2 GHz P4 1 Gb SDRAM 40gb HDD DVD-ROM+CD R/W 14" TFT ATi Rage Mobility 32 MB 2 x USB 2.0 Ethernet 10/100 2 x Cardbus slots serial + parallel sockets internal sound I will also chuck in: Belkin wireless 802.11g PC card Firewire 800 PC card The machine is of excellent build quality and condition and I can vouch for all the components; I had it apart for cleaning since my initial purchase in October. It is an ex UniChem 'fleet' machine; I am the second owner. It has performed extremely reliably; I have been running Feisty Fawn (Ubuntu 7.04) very successfully - just install and it JFW. Battery life is limited. You can get about 1/2 hour of use when unplugged from the mains however, new batteries are inexpensive and easily available on eBay. The only reason I haven't replaced it is that I haven't really needed to take it on the road, yet. Here is the IBM support page: http://www-132.ibm.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?categoryId=2072700&storeId=1&catalogId=-840&langId=-1 The reason for the sale is that I wish to put the money toward the purchase of a new(er) Mac laptop and I don't need two. I am asking £350 for the lot and would prefer a private sale over ebay as it represents better value for both parties. If interested, please contact me off list or call 07989 660267 Thanks! Ray
