You will be able to find similar laptops on EBay - but I ensure you that you will not find another one as nicely configured as this one - it really is in good condition. I urge you to compare the specification and also the software that is actually installed before you decide. I spend many hours on each project and you will be getting a first class refurbished machine that will give you great service and if treated with care and respect will last many years. I only deal in Lenovo Thinkpads because I really do think they are the best - I specialise in X41, X41 tablet, X61, X61S, X60 Tablet, X61 tablet, X200, X200S, X200T, T61, R61, R61i, Z61, X300, X301 and T400. Please continue reading below for more information about this laptop! Here once again I have refurbished a superb "ultra-portable" Thinkpad X201 laptop with the 2.40GHz processor and a 128GB solid state drive - see the photos and you will see what I mean. These ultra-portables were designed for "on the go" owners, businessmen or scholars or engineers where lightweight was important. You can see from the photos that this particular laptop has been carefully treated and well maintained - it's in very good overall condition! The battery on this particular laptop is a decent non-OEM type which will give at least 2 to 3 hours of charge. This is a lovely clean laptop with the usual excellent build quality. It's perfect for business use, or studying or just browsing the internet, playing music, movies etc. Being ultraportable it is very light and tidy - these laptops have no built-in CD / DVD Drive. Expansion capability is provided by the "Ultrabase" accessory ( not included) which accepts a range of drive options and allows great port expansion. Alternatively with three built-in USB ports available, a variety of Flash Drives or external CD/DVD Readers or Writers can easily be connected - this laptop has the power to drive them all. The Laptop comes with an AC power supply / charger block. Note: Most of the pictures are of the item itself. My digital camera does not do the laptop any justice - it is a real gem and looks very nice!" If you have a son or daughter returning to university soon (or yourself) then this is perfect - everything a student needs! I have cleaned the laptop inside and out and inspected it carefully. Everything works perfectly as it should (see later) - the cooling fan has been thoroughly cleaned and new thermal paste has been applied; good cooling is important because there is a lot of power in these small laptops - the dual core is now running at a nice cool 45 degrees lol. The Mint operating system runs really well on these little laptops and is "feature rich". There is nothing more that can be done to this computer except to turn it on and start to enjoy its great performance. The quality of Thinkpads speaks for itself and spare parts, memory and / or disk upgrades are readily available on EBay. Weighs just 1.5 Kg (!!) including the battery and when released these laptops sold for £1800 upwards (no joke)! Note: I always make a point of highlighting any problem areas and showing them clearly in the photos. I have made a minor repair near the modem port and there is a small crack on the palm rest - see photos. There is nothing else to report. Everything is present, in good order and working correctly. Great, light, reasonably priced powerful ultraportable. The combination of 2.4GHz dual core, solid state drive, 8GB RAM, 64 bit operating system makes this laptop a potent and fast machine - perfect for just about any application. I am a qualified electronics engineer recently retired early from working in the electronics manufacturing and test sector ( for many years!) and I enjoy diagnosing and fixing these Lenovo laptops. My passion is refurbishment and I pay attention to detail. I do not sell on any laptop that I am not totally happy with. If I can make a small profit on each laptop - then that allows me to continue with this process and pays for my coffee and bacon baps! I am a one man band and try not to compete with some of the larger sellers on Ebay - in fact I even buy some of their broken laptops! I offer a personal service and I am always available to offer advice about laptops, electronics etc. I have been asked about warranty - well hopefully you won't ever need this. These laptops are over ten years old and still running well. As a sole trader I cannot really offer a comprehensive warranty it's not possible or realistic. However if the laptop fails within 14 days through no fault of the buyer then of course I will consider repair or replacement. I will always offer a practical solution. If you are unlucky enough to have problems in the future then get in touch because I can often help and my diagnosis and repair rates are significantly cheaper than High Street prices. I also keep a range of spare parts and offer repair and refurbishment at very fair rates. This is a fantastic clean "ultra-portable" laptop for a very fair price with great software - the total package. Check out my 100% positive feedback if you have any remaining doubts and look up these X201 laptops on YouTube for even more information before you buy. I guarantee you will not be disappointed - this laptop is worth every penny believe me! I have described this lovely compact laptop as honestly and completely as possible BUT please remember that it is refurbished and not new - so there will be signs of use consistent with a used laptop (but not many). It is not practical or possible to list every single little blemish so if you are a buyer who is looking for perfection then please buy a new laptop. I have had one or two overseas buyers who have moaned about tiny marks that were not in the listing. My laptops are REFURBISHED not new. If you expect 100% perfection then please do not bid - thanks! Perfect for that return to University, or that commute on the train or even as a replacement desktop computer. Thanks for reading my listing all the way through and Good luck!! | ||
