    Can you guys tell me the best specifications that i can build on thinkpad T400 with the my budget $900 max. I am going to use this laptop for college so basically school work and light gaming. Hopefully the final price will be less than $900 with tax and shipping. I plan to use a coupon too. Thanks

    Hi wowcan'twait,

    Try getting it from your college if they still bundled ThinkPad purchases with academic orientated software AND (to me) an indispensable 3 year warranty to give you peace of mind that your ThinkPad can complete your degree with you. If you can afford to, shell out a bit more and upgrade to ThinkPad Protection. It's worth it given that your ThinkPad gets handled and moved around a lot and you'll be using electrical sockets that may not be device friendly.

    As for the specs, please fill up according to this format so folks here know your needs better:

    Meantime, all the best in your studies! :)
