I a not interested, but I thought I should point out a few things:
1) IBM Thinkpads ROCK !!!.....VERY Reliable.
2) You did not mention HDD size.
3) There is probably a Ps2 port.. Correct?
4) You should mention the model numbr on bottom of unit so peoplle can go to www.ib.com and get exact specs.
5) People always want to know if there are any dead or stuck pixels (these are visible when the screen is set to all black (for colored and white pixels to show up-stuck) and then set background to all white and look for black pixels (dead).
A few is no big deal, but WHERE they are is important. (how close to center).
Second thing people want to know is how long is battery life with current battery.
Lastly, is there any warranty left...IBM generally allows warranty transfers as they warranty the unit, not the person whom owns it.
You'll probably get more responses if you try to answer soe or all of the above.
Sounds like a nice machine though.

good suggestions:
it has a 30 gig HD
no PS/2 port (IBM has dropped those) but is has an s-video port so you can dsiplay on a tv
There are no stuck or dead pixels
I think there is about a year left on the warranty
the battery is brand new and holds a long complete charge
I have a case for it
