T61p 4:3 mania

[sktn77a]

I love the 4:3 format 14" T61p computer (I own 2 of them) but the prices they have been getting on e-bay are insane for previous generation technology:

Maybe I should sell mine and get a couple of W500s!

I wouldn't be too sure that those bids were legit, a lot of the bidders had 0, 1, or 2 feedback.

Agreed, the auction(s) look very fishy at best, and given eBay's current policies that mandate no negative feedback for buyers, there's got to be a lot of jokers/scammers around...along with all types of normally-expected-riff-raff...

On another note, you should get a W500, since it's a better machine than T61p in nearly all respects, at least in my book...and they can be quite inexpensive nowadays...
