No wonder it sold out; it had some pretty awesome specs for a bizzarely low price. :)

Bill where would you suggest that i purchase a machine from looking for either x60, x60s (would've gotten this if it had the new core2duo) and my friends is looking for a T60 possibly a T60p.

We are both from Denmark, but have friends in the us we could ship them to and have them ship to us.

Thanks for a great site btw.

IBM Certified Used regularly (maybe every couple of weeks or so) has very good deals. And, for those concerned about buying used on eBay or Craigslist, the everyday deals are often OK, too. All with some kind of warranty.

Stock is often very limited. If you call directly, they'll tell you how many they have or had. They will even cut slight deals for quantity purchases.
