Hi,
I have a T410 which is about a year old now, specs below:
Processor Intel Core i7-620M Processor (2.66GHz 3MBL3 1066MHz)
Operating system Genuine Windows 7 Professional 64
Operating system Language Genuine Windows 7 Professional 64 - English
Display type 14.1" WXGA+ LED w/WW Ant
System graphics NVIDIA SG 256MB, AMT
Total memory 4 GB PC3-8500 DDR3 (2 DIMM)
Hard drive 320GB Hard Disk Drive, 7200rpm
Battery 9 cell 2.8Ah Li-Ion Battery - Dual Mode
Power cord 90W AC Adapter; NA, LA, (2pin)
Integrated WiFi wireless LAN adapters Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300
I'm currently in University and drawing on notes is pretty important for me. Typing equations, processes etc. out with the T410 is tedious. I've been looking at old X60/X61 and seen some in the $200-$300 range. Some have commented that these still work pretty well and if anything is damaged, its pretty easy to get replacement parts. Since I am only looking to use it for note taking only and nothing too intensive, am I correct to assume that such machine would fit my purpose quite nicely?
My second option to buying an older tablet directly is to sell my T410 and just buy a newer model tablet - probably a X220. If I go this route, any suggestions on the best way to sell this, the price that I'd be looking to sell it for?
Or I could just go for that new thinkpad tablet... lotsof options..
