That's a nice R61 .

Nice machine. I've had two R series Thinkpads. Both have been excellent.

Looks like it is in good shape - congratulations on the purchase

I've owned 2 R's an R40 + R61 and both were great...

Congrats, you've succeeded in making my R40 (and I) jealous, not an easy task. Nice machine. I LOVE the Rxx series thinkpads.

I have been looking into buying an R61 on ebay. Any tips for me, and how much did you pay for it?

Post here in the marketplace forum that you're looking for a machine and your budget. While you might pay a bit more here than ebay or CL, the people here tend to be much more honest about what they're selling than ebay, where it's everyone for themselves. That has a lot of value, especially on a used notebook. I would also advise you to stay away from the R61 with tne nvidia gpus, even if the price is very attractive. Good Luck.

Thank you, will do.

It remains a beautiful model. In hindsight, I occasionally wonder if I chose right with my T compared to the R version. I like the speaker placement for one. I would also have had more "play" with my budget had I given the R more thought.

Ah well, if only all my tough decisions were which ThinkPads to get, rather than whether I can afford any.

I picked one up recently for $5 at a Goodwill. It's a nice backup for the PC bag, but I like bluetooth mice better. They need no USB port (if you have internal BT), and this MS one has a big dongle (Nice that it tucks in, though)

Hi you can try to bid on one, I won mine brand new on bid, I dont think the guy I won it from has more he had 10 of them left but it was at least 5 months ago I got it.

Do any of you know of those T61 skins would fit on an R61 Thinkpad? I really wanted a carbon fiber skin

carbon fiber skin? you mean the under casing? which R61 model are you talking about?

That's sweet! I love my R61. It looks like that but with a few minor battle scars.
