wow. no love at all. Did I price it too high or something?

Welcome to the forum!

Bumps only every 72 hours, please...

As for your question, you might be on the track to the right answer...just my opinion...

You may not get that money here, but I think you just might on the auction site. That is a nice machine, and the FlexView and warranty add to the value.

I am using the same model as my main machine right now and I love it. I'd like to think it's worth $600+, too, however, evidence would suggest otherwise.

With loaded T60's selling in the low $600's - http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?t=51089 - this type of T42 will have to be priced somewhat below $600 to get interest.

Hopefully, between $500 and $575 is right.
