Asking price is $800 plus shipping, and yes, I'll ship anywhere in the world as long as you are willing to pay the shipping to get it there. ;)

I bought it about 1.5 years ago, right when it came out (right when it came out...price drop ~1 month after release happened while it was in the mail... :facepalm: ), and have taken very good care of it since. I'm getting rid of it now because I honestly don't need it anymore, and I want to hopefully catch the wave while it's still worth a fair amount. ;) Anyways, on to the specs and pics.

Lenovo Thinkpad X200:
12.1" 1280x800 display
Intel 4500MHD
Intel C2D P8400 2.26Ghz
160GB 5400RPM HDD
4GB DDR3-1066
Intel WiFi Link 5300 (a/g/n)
9-cell battery
bluetooth
integrated wifi, bluetooth, and WWAN antennas
Trackpoint and fingerprint reader
5-in-1 media card reader
modem
integrated webcam
Vista Business license
XP Pro 'downgrade' license

It is running Ubuntu right now, but I can ship it with XP Pro, Vista Business, 7 (with no license key applied), or your choice of Linux.

When it was running Vista, I was able to push it to ~9.5 hours of battery life with radios (wifi and bluetooth) turned off and the display brightness turned down, and I think about 8-8.5 hours with the wifi turned on and the display at medium brightness. In Ubuntu, I haven't really tried to improve the battery life at all, so it only gets ~5-6 hours with wifi on, display on upper mid brightness and compiz-fusion (aka, pretty graphics) turned on.

Lenovo recently discontinued the X200 line, but for context, a new one from their outlet store with almost identical specs is going for $962. I paid $1,912 for it when I bought it new. Reasonable offers will be considered.

I took a couple more shots on my way out the door this morning, but when I actually stopped to look at them, they were rubbish. I'll get more up later when I get home.

Any interest in this if I drop to $700? I'd rather it go to someone I know than random person on eBay.

Make sure you set a reserve on ebay
