WTB a T61 4:3 Motherboard with the following FRU:
Intel GM965: 42W7648 Merom / 42W3807 Merom / 42W7872 Penryn
Could be interested in a T61 complete laptop, poor/working condition is fine (better actually).

I have a system board which will work for you but isn't the built in GPU version. It is the newly remade version of the fastest NVIDIA GPU version of this board. I have saved it for a long time. It's NOS, never plugged in or used. Still in the box. This has the 2011 date, so it's not a bad NVIDIA chip or a refurbished bad one. It's the highest spec available. It has a new FRN Number due to the fact they gave new part numbers to differentiate the bad chips from the newly made ones. This is a rare board. Not all factory repaired NVIDIA problems got these new boards and new chips. Price is $350 plus $20 to ship. Call or text 302-498-3332.
I also have a working 14.1" t60 (or t61, I have to check I don't remember) with the best screen. The highest resolution screen. Machine works great but screen is dimmer than new computers. I believe it's by design.
I also have the exact board you want but it's in my 15" frankenpad and I don't know if I want to sell that board out of there. I don't think it would be worth it for me to sell it for the $129 price it is probably worth. That is also a new board I bought NOS around 2011.

I bought the same board, from TuuS, with a 2011 date, and it still failed for me... no thanks. Let me know if that 14.1" thinkpad is a T61, I would be interested.
