I have the posibility to get a Thinkpad T60P

with these specs:

T7400
9 Cell battery
1 GB DDR (5300)
XP Home
Wireless ABG
3 year depot warranty
60 HDD SATA
8X max dual layer dvd burner

for a total of 1540 $ (it's brand new)

Also a side question: Would people on here recommend paying the extra cost to upgrade the HDD to a 7200 100gb or buying it seperate from another site?

Thanks!

Didnt even know you could get the T60p with XP Home.....then again...not sure why someone ordered it.

Depends on the cost of the upgrade. If the upgrade from Lenovo is $130 then you can buy an Hitachi 100gb/7200 from Zipzoomfly for around $150 or less and keep the 60gb which nets out to only an additional $20 for an extra 60gb drive. Not bad.

BTW.. I think $1540 is a good price; but, if you haven't already done so, check with Lenovo's sales reps to see if you can get a better price.
