      The second IBM Thinkpad (this one being a T60p UXGA) I bought through ebay USA for my gf arrived through customs this week. It's really frigging fantastic! For 350 euro inc. S&H! The screen is better than 2000 euro crap notebooks they sell nowadays.

      It's beyond me why stuff like this isn't made any more. It's only cheap rubbish you can buy these days. I wouldn't touch a new notebook with a 10 feet pole when I get the chance to get one of these IPS panel thinkpads. Makes me feel sad And then there's people like my sister who think 2nd hand is a dirty word.

            Are you guys tired of CCC (Cheap Chinese Crap) that doesn't last?
            No worries, with the US economy tanking and a need to become an export nation again while the middle class rises in China, we will soon have our chance to right that wrong.
