Background

About the IBM ThinkPad i Series 1200

Sold 2000–2001

IBM ThinkPad i Series 1200 was sold from September 2000 to November 2001 as one of the smallest and cheapest models in the i Series. It used Intel Celeron processors from 500 to 700 MHz, with a 700 MHz Pentium III on the top version, and hard drives of 5 to 20 GB. Screens were 12.1-inch SVGA, in passive HPA or TFT form, or 13.3-inch XGA TFT, and the sub-models 1210, 1230, 1250 and 1260 mark the different panels.

IBM's service manual treats the 1200 together with the i Series 1300 and the ThinkPad 130, so the three have much in common. At this age the battery will no longer hold charge, and the small original hard drive is a likely point of failure.
