Thinkpads Forum

I noticed our local CompUsa has two Lenovo models in store and it appears that CUSA will be selling one or two basic models.
A 14" T60 Core Duo View Here and a Lenovo N100 series Notebook 14". Although the T60 is not the latest C2D model this gives some their first opportunity of touching and viewing a Thinkpad in person before ordering.

Just a FYI post

CompUSA? How low can they go? Before we know it, they'll be selling T60 machines at Canned Food Warehouse, Dollar Tree or Goodwill.

They sell those same models at costco. I think that it's hard to beat Costco's return policy for computers: 6 months, no questions asked.

There was a time, quite a few years ago when Compusa displayed a number of thinkpad models. Long before Lenovo entered the picture.

I have not particularly been a fan of CompUSA for several years now, but when I went shopping on Black Friday last November, they beat Best Buy, pricewise, on several items that I looked at. FTR, this CompUSA and Best Buy are only a couple of blocks from each other. I was surprised.!

Sweet, I'll be shopping at Costco next, I can buy a computer and return it six months later for a newer model, then repeat the process.

I think they axed that policy because of people like you...

Well, it could always be worse....It could be Best Buy.

Is this just a joke or are you really not aware of it? Best Buy has been selling Thinkpads for about a year.

Actually, it used to be you could return a computer anytime, no questions asked. They reduced the policy to six months due to abuse (just for computers, all other merchandise still has the generous "anytime" policy) . They only problem with Costco online is that they don't have a very wide variety. Specially when it comes to thinkpads, they only have two or three preconfigured models, and not the high-end ones. Some stores have them in situ, but there are few of those stores.
