This is a remanufactured IBM laptop...no telling if it is perfect or has any imperfections. Also, there is no x4 base included. That will cost you another $100. I would be inclined to call them and discuss the units further.
It is very tempting...try to confirm the return policy. The third party warranty for three years is also questionable...I would prefer a warranty from IBM/Lenovo.

It's not a bad deal, but there are better deals out there.
Look for a longer IBM warranty, it's important.
Also, the Dothan models (over 1.4GHz) are better performers, as are the units with 60GB drives.
