**SOLD**

As the title says, an EXCELLENT CONDITION IBM ThinkPad A30 with a Pentium 3 933Mhz, 256MB RAM, 20GB disk, both a CD-R drive and a DVD drive (read only). The physical condition is at least a 9/10 if not better, it was my roommate’s dad’s business machine. I bought it to do tuning but realized I don’t really need it since my car’s tune is solid. 14.1" 1024x768 screen (perfect condition, no dead pixels, kept CLEAN) 10/100 ethernet, built-in modem, both Serial and 2 USB (great for tuning since some EMS still uses Serial ports) Parallel, VGA, keyboard/mouse. Includes AC Adapter. Battery life is like-new, approx 3 hours.

It’s a VERY solid machine, I’ve seen ones like this w/o the CD drive go for 350-400 on eBay.

Asking $225 local Roc (250 shipped if you’re not local, cuz of insurance).

PM me please.

Thanks Nick. Yeah, it’s practically a new machine considering 😉 QUITE fast / I was using it for a few weeks after I sold my MacBook Pro and wasn’t disappointed.

I’ve seen this laptop in person and it looks great and functioned very well. He’s a good seller. Would have bought it if I didn’t just get a new laptop.
