I'm Selling a mint Condition upgraded 560 Thinkpad for $700. It is Worth $2000+ on the Street.
Here is a Description of this Think Pad.

"IBM ThinkPad 560"
1gig HD
40 Megs of EDO
12.1-inch active-matrix display,
64-bit Trident Cyber chip set and 8MB VRAM
Pentium/200 processor
24x external CD-ROM
WIN98 Preloaded,
Microsoft Office,
"extra" A Port Adapter at no extra cost.

"Although it turned in respectable performance scores, the ThinkPad 560's main focus is
portability, not power. Its travel weight is just 4.8 pounds, a figure aided by a very compact
AC adapter brick. At 1.3 inches, the ThinkPad 560 matches the HiNote Ultra II for
ultra-thinness. But the ThinkPad's slightly larger overall footprint (11.8 by 8.8 inches)
provides room for a stunning 12.1-inch SVGA active-matrix display and a full-size keyboard
and the trademark pointing stick." PC MAG

Josh,

You've given us all the info we need
except the processor speed, along with a
lot that we don't need, like the
presumed $2000 value --- way off! You
can get the original 560's (pentium 133)
for about what you're asking from many
sources. I paid $245 for my 560e
(pentium 166 mmx), although I had to buy
a battery and floppy. All in all, I
have about $700 in mine after I bought
all the accessories, including two port
replicators, two power bricks, modem and
NIC.

You don't have a bad deal there, just
didn't give the info you needed to, and
unnecessarily hyped the info you did
give.
