BID FOR A GOOD CAUSE: 10% TOTAL GOES DIRECTLY TO CHARITY
THIS LAPTOP RUNS GREAT - LISTED AS "FOR PARTS" TO ENSURE YOU READ THE DESCRIPTION AND CHECKED ALL PHOTOS FOR CONDITION AND TO MAKE SURE YOU KNEW 1 of the charging usb-c not working - STILL includes another perfectly working charging port, with included charger!
Still great laptop to have, for more affordable price, benefiting an important non-profit human rights protecting charity: The Tor Project (they receive 10% total)

libreboot IPS T480s Thinkpad laptop comes with all you need: 1x libreboot laptop +battery +charger +Tails Linux usbstick
Great option for those interested in a custom motherboard laptop running more open source hardware with Intel Management Engine concerns disabled personally in the hardware for you.
Comes as listed with 1 x Good 64GB USBSTICK running Tails Linux (great OSINT / privacy respecting option)
* Alternatively can ask for Linux Mint, or Debian, SDR or Cybersecurity related usb
***IMPORTANT NOTE: tested 2nd charging port which works fine and charges - noticed 1 top charging port bad / not working (you get a great IPS display included in this laptop, and have another usb-c for charging working as expected on the 2nd one included).
OTHER usb-c port working fine for charging - was not told by seller we got it from (paid more than I'd like to have, still offering as affordably as possible after spending over 200 to complete laptop), but want to make sure to be 100% transparent with buyers on this. 🙂
If looking for something closer to 'perfect', send us a message - we have many more options on laptops, some not shown.
* Great part: Has a really great / perfect IPS display (no scratches, NO keymarks at all)
Since this one has 1 bad usb-c charge port, we'd like to offer option to upgrade this to more advanced hardware set up, for a bit more (send us a message to learn more before purchase, to understand expectations / pricings)
***IMPORTANT: WATCH VIDEO / SEE ALL PICTURES FOR OUR CRITIQUE BEFORE purchasing 🙂
Qubes +Whonix OR Linux install from one of our current options included in price (make sure to ask before expecting anything outside description to see if included, as we have low margins as priced)
