    Hello all,

    Recently I have been thinking about selling my T61. All it does is sit in my desk praying that my Ideapad gets murdered. There isn't a thing wrong with it(The battery charges to 100% still!) and I feel that someone else could use it. Since I'm finally taking more computer courses at college, I thought something with better battery life and a lot lighter would be awesome. Something along the lines of a x201. Anyone know how much I could get for it? If I could get around $500 for it I would do it. I still see new T61 go for $1,500! :eek: I would use the T61 for class work but the screen isn't bright enough, doesn't get the battery life I need and weighs far too much. (I don't live on campus, so my backpack is quite full and the extra laptop weight is annoying.)

    Input extremely welcome. :D

    Thanks. ~350

    maybe 350 is the price you should try to sell it for? I doubt you can get 500 USD for a T61p in USA, when a T400 is only 600 Odd dollars from the outlet.lenovo.com.
