    The guy has some access to some used x61t with no HDD. Looks like the low res for $300 and high res for $400. He needs at least 15 buyers. Will probably need a bit more information, regarding models, battery, warranty (if any). But it looks like a solid deal, especially if its the SXGA+ for the high res for $400!

    Spread this around to friends and family - I would hate to lose out on this because of not enough interest. This is a fantastic deal for students, especially.

    I know it might be a hassle, but if you can please register at TPR and let kpvic know - hes doing enough for us to get these, so I think we should keep things organized for him. Worst case someone can play intermediate between NBR and TPR - but things will get confusing that way.

    yea i'd urge everyone who doesn't have a TPR sn, sign up so we can keep it simple for kpvic. I'm just trying to help him reach his 15, haha. But people don't take my high res, I'm in for two :D. haha.

    Follow that link at the top to TPR - you will have to sign up there, but this makes it easier to the organizer to track this so we know if there are enough people for this to work.

    Might it not be easier to just expect that everyone here take out the 1 minute, 30 seconds it requires to register over there?

    edit: never mind. I think we're all on the same page.

    haha I'm pretty sure we can reach the amount. So now it's almost the real question if how many he has available.
