[ForSale-Swap] IBM/Lenovo X41 Laptop with lots of extras

[Gil Bishop]

This laptop was purchased from CDW in October, 2005 and has 30 months 
remaining on the warranty.  Unfortunately, due to changes in the security 
practices at my company I can no longer use personal equipment for business 
purposes.  Since their going to provide me with a company laptop now, and I 
have another laptop for this personal use, figure while this is still very 
much a current model and top-of-the-line, it is a good time to recoup some 
of the cost for other toys...hihi.  This Thinkpad has the best battery life 
of any laptop I've ever owned.  Consistently able to get 6 - 7 hours of 
"real" use (not some rigged benchmark testing with no harddrive activity and 
the monitor dimmed to the point of being unreadable) from it running with 
the 8-cell extended battery and the aux battery together. More than enough 
to make it through a coast-to-coast flight without a problem.  Just did a 
quick Google for current prices and the best I could find today (3/30/06) 
for this model was $1550.00.  The extra batteries, docking station, and 
other accessories add about a grand to that figure (priced today as well).

I'll take $1500 for everything (plus shipping) and will perform a full 
factory-restore prior to selling, so you'll have a fresh laptop.   If you 
want to learn more about the laptop and the accessories, go to 
www.lenovo.com.  I can send pictures on request and will try and answer any 
questions.
