looks good to me.... prices are dropping like a rock on pc's and laptops these days.

It's a Lenovo. Good to go.

true, but not a Thinkpad... it's the Lenovo brand, still good, but not a thinkpad.

Not a (_____) but I guess it will do :thumbup:

Show me a (_____) that costs $679.00 new :rofl:

I got my MPB for less than $679.00, new. But that was b/c of the faulty(ish) iBook.

that doesn't count. Mine was multiple G's as was my iMac.

Suave, laptop looks good spec wise....cross your fingers with Vista :)

Least expensive Thinkpad T61 (8897CTO) :

Select leftmost T61, then rightmost T61 14in
Select Vista Home Basic, Thinkpad 11a/b/g; Apply Code at cart
NOTE: T61 15.4" Model similar price, similar config available

IMO, I wouldn't buy the 3000 series. It is the low end offered by Lenovo. I own the Thinkpad Tablet X61 and it is a soild built machine. Best keyboard made on any laptop.
Good luck finding a good deal though, so much out there.
