I've never seen prices for a Thinkpad like this, even EPP pricing is higher. Even used T4x machines go for more than this. If you can tolerate 1024x768 resolution, this is the deal of a century.

The price is awesome.

Does anybody know if buy.com is an authorized Lenovo/IBM reseller?

Edit:
Techonweb.com is an IBM business partner, plus it has good reviews on resellerratings. I will buy from there ($30 extra for quality service and peace of mind).

2529E3U ThinkPad Z60m $250

Just remember those prices are for the 1 year warranty only, not the 3 year everyone wants to get..

Fine by me considering that if I bought a T60 I would be yanking that Core Duo/Solo chip out to put a Merom in. :D
