I purchased a T41 from coolname1 and it was a great transaction. The laptop was nicer than described and a wonderful deal. coolname1 answered all my questions and shipped the laptop quickly.

I am looking to sell my laptop (specs in sig). it has warranty until 2009. In fact, I just took it out of the box earlier this month (yes, I still have the box, all the accessories, backup disks, etc. I have used it twice. I also have a thinkpad sleeve (from riverwater) and a shaggy mac screen prote...

I had a wonderful buying experience with Riverwater. The slipcase I purchased arrived as described and faster than he said it would! Thanks!

Just got mine today, it looks great! Thanks for the super fast shipping!

Dibs on one of these!

Just ordered 1GB for my T42.....In my experience, the ram will be bad when you get it. I will run memtest for a couple of days just to be sure.

Any thoughts on where it comes from? Maybe systems that have other problems and were scrapped?

I just bought a new in the sealed in the box t42 off of ebay, yesterday. Should be @ my house tomorrow! Might want to check there.

Bump, price dropped to $650.00

Unfortunatley, The warranty has expired on the unit.

Bump....I really want to sell this, please make me a reasonable offer if you are interested. Thanks!

Sold! Thanks for all of the great responses!

I have to say that most of the reason that I purchased a thinkpad was its compatiblity with windows. I currenlty run breezy on my x31. I have full support for everything, suspend to RAM, suspend to disk, etc., thinkpad buttons, wifi (including wpa), well, like I said everything. While I recommend Op...

My previous computer was an X24. I had a USB 1.1 cd-rom which I used to install winxp without problems. Does an error message? What is the message exactly? When I re-read your post, it seems as though the install takes place and then when you reboot to complete the setup, it won't reboot. Is this co...

//begin rant I use stuff until literally, it falls apart. This is part of the reason why I own a thinkpad. It should, if taken care of correctly, last for a long time. I have never thrown away a computer come to think of it. I have an old Sinclair in my basement (still in the box complete with recip...

I have a skivvy in Oatmeal. I love my Crumpler, it fits like a glove and provides good protection from all angles. I have an X31 so it is pretty small, most people don't think thta I have a laptop hiding in my bag. There is enough room to hold my thinkpad, additional battery, and ac adapter; it is p...

Full time, for the last 6 months on linux and windows (when I have to boot windows)......No comatiblity problems. I have to deal with a lot of funky formatted docs too (legal documents). They all come out ok.

I love OO as it is it is typically called. Great Program. I have not used office for quite a while. OO runs great in both linux and windows. If you keep the quick start icon running, OO launches on very, very quickly. There are also other ways to tweak the program to open faster. Keep in mind that M...

I bought a Crumpler bag for my X31. The model is called "skivvy" and it fits the puter like a dream. There is enough room to haul around my power adapter and the laptop. Just amazing. Cost like 40 off of ebay (I bought last years model) Highly recommended.

how durable is it? I have considered changing the color of my thinkpad but I am concerned that after a while the paint will chip and fall off.....

I can vouch for brainpicker, I am tyiping this on the mint x31 he sold me. It was the best online transaction ever!

I am currently running Ubuntu on my x31. Works very well....If you are looking for something similar to windows, why not try it? The hardware support is very good, only thing out of the box that is not supported is WPA in my intel wifi and suspend (although both are easily fixed) At the risk of a fl...

I am running Breezy on my thinkpad, it runs like a champ. I have Kubuntu and Xubuntu installed as well (some days I like different UIs). Wifi worked outta the box, as did sound. I run my laptop docked and as long as you have the laptop LCD disabled, I have 1280X1024 resolution on my 17" flatpanel. L...

I think you got a pretty good deal. Best thing to do is max out the RAM and have fun with it. I had an x24 and even with my x31, I still kinda miss my little beast.....

I have the same system as yours (x31, 1.4 GHZ) with 1.5 GB of RAM. If you can go two GB do it, but make sure that you get as much as you can. It makes all the difference in the world. I do a lot of video editing, photoshopping, etc, and it really helps. I also have a 5400 rpm HD, which helps a lot a...
