Just thought I would share with you guys and gals what a great deal used Thinkpads are these days. I am thrilled with my refurbished Thinkpad 600 that I picked up for $300.

I added a cd burner, external floppy, extra battery and wireless network card, all from e-bay except the network card, for around $100 and updated the OS to Windows 2000.

So I have about $400 in it and it's a great machine, plenty fast enough even though it's a PII 300.

I feel Thinkpads are some of the best built laptops out there and you can get an older one in perfect shape for peanuts now.

I don't even turn my desktop on anymore. I'm writing this from my patio.

As Cartman woud say:

SWEEEET!!!!!!!!!
