You can get a brand new Thinkpad Edge for $500 from Lenovo's website. They'll also give you a 10% off coupon for signing up for their mailing list (oddly enough, my coupon didn't actually work, but when I called their sales line they were happy to give me the discount.)

They also have a sale on warranties right now - I extended my base warranty for 3 years for $70. I also sucked it up and upgraded to the new Ivy Bridge Core i7. All together that was $724, which I thought was a steal.

So anyway, go check out the website and just buy a new one.

Thanks for the advice Lyan, but I'm looking strictly for a 12" laptop. From what I see, the 12"ers are much more expensive!

This is why I was looking into this laptop. Here's the link BTW:

I guess I should have been more specific. Is this a good buy for a 12" laptop? Seems legit.
