I have an IBM Thinkpad 380XD without a working battery and a duff parallel port.

64MB P233MMX, 4 or 6GB HDD - blank - can't remember, 12" TFT, CD ROM, floppy, PCMCIA 56K modem, mains adaptor. Poor cosmetic condition but no cracks etc. You'd need to install an OS on it, it runs W2K OK.

Depends what you call cheap - how about £70 delivered? New batteries are £30 off Ebay, but it is poverty spec, but fine for surfing/email.

johnbanks@dsl.pipex.com if you are interested, but I suspect you will want something posher
