All thinkpads come with new AC Adapter and new mouse track point. All Thinkpad are 100% functional unless noted otherwise. All have been upgraded and tested by myself thoroughly.
Thinkpads with a hard drive come with Microsoft Windows XP Factory pre-installed with a disc of drivers. Microsoft Windows 98 is also an option. All systems also come with Slackware Linux installed on a second partition if requested.
All machines come with two USB ports and one ultra usb port at the top.

The media slice option is not included. There are no batteries supplied with any machine purchase - buy a brand new battery for under $40 CAD from <a href=../autolink/redirectpage.php?linkid=77 target=_blank>ebay.ca</a>.


A lot more details are available from <a href=http://windowsmobiledevices.com/x20/x20.html>here</a>

At the request of several RFDers, I will post explicit pictures of these machines, particularly the screen. Believe it or not, not a single machine has dead pixels - what's the likelyhood of that occuring?
