Well, i got a 2373-92u T40 with a busted system board

-- water got on it. IBM wants 600 bucks just for the board, labor i can cover for myself since I opened my T40 before.

Do you think it's worht it to fix it or should i just wait and get another one, cost wise ?

If the mobo is the only thing that was damage by the water than it's probably cheaper to replace it with a T40/T41/T42 board of your choice

But if the optical drive, hard drive, LCD, etc were potentially damaged then I'd sell the parts on this board and get a new one.

Yes, the only problem is that they are $530+

I don't have that kind of money... oh wait, i can always ebay my 20gigs ipod, the bluetooth set, 512 ram....hopefully that's 350 right there.....
