The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    A co-worker asked me if a T-61 he spec'd out on Lenova's site was a good deal, so I checked it out, then I went and found a coupon for him at cheapstingybargains.com for another 10% off. - USPTIME2SAVE
    He's going to purchase this. With their current sale and the coupon you can get it for $1267.65 !!! The closes spec Newegg has for it is over 2000. I'm tempted to buy one myself. Thought I'd share the deal though. He's choosing to get Win XP Pro, and only 1 GIG RAM (one stick) since he can upgrade it himself cheaper than IBM would.
