IBM T42 Laptop in excellent condition ($1100)

I'm selling my IBM T42 Thinkpad laptop. It has a 14.1" screen, weighs ~4.5lbs and is in immaculate condition. The laptop goes for 5 hours on the battery. It has a brand new keyboard and a brand new battery and ~2 years remaining on the warranty. I'm selling it because I bought it for school, but work has just provided me with one. I paid $2100 for it. Here are the specs:

Pentium M 735 1.7 GHz w/ 2MB cache
1GB RAM
40GB HD
ATI Mobility RADEON 7500 video card
CDRW/DVD-ROM Drive
802.11b/g built-in (Centrino laptop, so it's very energy efficient)
2 USB ports
10/100/1000 Ethernet port
2 PCMCIA slots
VGA Out
S-Video Out
Windows XP Professional and lots of pre-installed software

I have all the original boxes, packaging and software. The laptop is in excellent condition and is built like a tank.

I'll throw in a free Eagle Creek carrying case for the laptop (~$60 when I bought it). If you're interested, make me an offer! Pics available upon request.

one pic is with the flash on, so the screen looks dimmer than it is, but you can see how clear/sharp the screen is. the other two are with the flash off so you get a better idea of how bright the screen is since it is pretty bright.

solid laptop, great warranty remaining. if you have any issues, they just mail you a replacement part, or you can take advantage of the depot repair and they fix it asap. i haven't had a single issue with it since day one. the only reason i'm selling it is because got an identical laptop, literally the exact same t42, from work for free, so i don't need this anymore for my part-time master's program. it's plenty fast for the software development i've used it for.

edit: i have high res versions that do the display more justice... if you give me an email address i can send those to you

I just want to add that I have the same laptop from work and it's a beast. It hasn't failed me yet and restores my confidence in PC laptops after coming from an Apple Powerbook.

The battery life on this laptop is great, not too heavy, and powerful for your mobile needs.

Good luck with your sale.
