| This is a cool computer. It's an IBM ThinkPad Pen computer
with a 64 shade grayscale screen that folds up to reveal a full keyboard.
I've seen a few of these now on eBay, but I think I'm the only one who's
offered them fully set up with Windows 95. This includes Pen Services 2.0
and full PCMCIA Plug-n-play support. It's like a ThinkPad 730T with a pop
out keyboard and SOUND!! If you're used to the 730T's monochrome 16 screen,
just wait til you see the difference that a full 64 shades of gray can
give you. This laptop also comes with alot of ThinkPad specific set-up
software. And no need for a port replicator bar - the 750P comes with a
full compliment of ports (see table below). The 750P's screen sports a
textured glass writing surface which gives it a real "paper" feel. |

Both the Thinkpad 730T and the Ricoh G1200s
pentops use the type III PCCARD slot for their main hard drive. This makes
Plug & Play support for their PCMCIA slots difficult. The 750P uses
an internal HD, leaving both slots free for expansion. The internal HD
is a standard ThinkPad drive - readily available and easily upgradable.
The wireless PCMCIA network card pictured in the 750P's type II slot is
NOT included, but the drivers for it are installed. Using the 750P in tablet
mode with a wireless network card is really cool - You can get on the net
and wander around your house, take it to the couch while the family is
watching TV. |
Floating Keyboard

Data entry is accomplished via a floating keyboard
or by using handwriting recognition

The 750P uses a passive electromagnetic
pen (manufactured by Wacom) which fits neatly into a compartment next to
the screen. Data entry is accomplished via a floating keyboard, handwriting
recognition, or open it up and type away. The keyboard features the TrackPoint
used on all of IBM's ThinkPads. It may be used in conjunction with the
pen as a pointing device.. The 750P has 4MB of ram on the motherboard -
I've expanded that with an 4MB credit card module for a total of 8MB. The
750P takes memory cards compatable with other IBM Thinkpads, so if you're
upgrading to this powerful pentop from your old 730T, you can migrate the
memory. The internal HD is 170MB which I've compressed to 250MB+ and has
the full install of Windows 95. I've left 20MB uncompressed for virtual
memory paging.

| This doesn't come with an AC adapter,
but these 4 pin adapters are regularly available on eBay. The battery is
a standard ThinkPad flat type and like most used ones doesn't appear to
hold a charge. A new one lasts about 2+ hours on a full charge. This comes
with a working (removable) 1.44MB floppy drive.
While this computer is currently in good working condition,
it is not new equipment so I must offer it as-is.
