    I'm planning to buy a 6710b from HP Business outlet. The price for refurbished one varies between 599-649. I'm wondering if there is anything I should worry about and is it worth?

    I'm wondering also what is the build quality of 6710b I'm looking for a good build machine not interested in design or computing power so much.

    I'm considering either T60/61 or HP 6710b

    The T60/61 would be better build than the 6710b, the 6710b will be above average but wont be as good as the more expensive business class models.

    Sure 8510p will be much better but it almost double as much. I played today I little bit with one 6710b and I like the touchpad very much. It looks really durable.
