WTB older laptop

Bro, I'm not sure where it is now. My room got picked up, and it disappeared in the process. I'll look for it, but I'm not sure I'll be able to find it. I'll let you know if I do.
 
Are you still looking for a laptop? I have one I will give you (you pay shipping). It's a Fujitsu Lifebook C2220. It's got a P4M with 768M of RAM and a 120G HDD and currently has Ubuntu 11.04 running on it. Let me know if you want more info.

does it have a DVD drive that functions? And how much would shipping be using USPS with tracking? It should fit in a standard flat rate box.
I assume that http://reviews.cnet.com/laptops/fujitsu-lifebook-c2220-notebook/1707-3121_7-30490859.html is the review of this lappy? If so, it looks good for my purposes, assuming that most of it works (screen, optical drive, HDD, and USB ports, Serial if it has it).
(Also check Fedex. they have excellent service, and generally arrives ahead of the expected day).
 
Yes, DVD burner works (just burned a CD with it the other day). It has 4 USB ports, serial & parallel ports, PCMCIA slot, SD card slot and LAN port. The display is good (I don't see any dead pixels or anything). It has built-in 802.11G wifi but I have it setup to use a tiny USB 802.11N adapter.

Here's what's wrong with it: battery is on it's last legs (won't hold a charge), it has a non-working floppy drive (ZIF connector for it's ribbon cable broke off), the cooling fan is a bit loud and the keytop for the F6 key is missing (key still works, just no keytop).

Yes, that's the correct review you linked to.

If you are still interested, I will look into how much it would cost to ship it to you. What is your zip code?

BTW, the optical is a CD burner/DVD ROM drive not a DVD burner as I said earlier. I'll check into shipping costs.
