Thanks for reading this. I just got a Thinkpad T30 from a guy who gave it away on the "Freecycle" list. He got the machine to light up and got to the BIOS, but there's no battery, and I don't want to tempt fate by running it without one. The former owner said something about the RAM, and I gather the T30's had some problem with the second slot not working, but that's all I could find out from Google. I'd like to borrow a battery for a T30, and try to judge if this one is worth the time to work on: the big question right now is whether the $33 for a new battery and possibly $20 for a charger is worth the risk, and I'd like some more information before I decide. If you'd rather, you're welcome to take the machine and charger and docking station and have a go at it yourself: I got it for free and I'm OK with paying it forward. Thanks in advance.
