Sory but this looks like the ad for the man more than shout for help.

And this : This story can be verified with a well-known VC and other reputable folks around Silicon Valley, just ping me for details.

I am sure well-known VC can scratch 300 bucks for a few years old Thinkpad that can serve the MIT grad for a year or two until the advertised startup picks up and gets funded.

Call me a cynic...

Not quite sure what you mean by 'an ad for the man' but that doesn't strike me as particularly accurate.

I heard about this young fellow who needs a laptop and so I made a post, there are no ulterior motives here, just trying to help.

And yes, the VC is a billionaire would certainly could afford a machine but that offer has yet to be made so here we are.
