We have seven in our office, from T21s up to W700s. They are rugged, reliable and reasonably priced. And they have the little eraser-heads, which my partner absolutely requires of her machines. We keep several of the machines around as scratch machines for testing and short projects, even though they are 5+ years old. I've replaced/upgraded a few hdds, added some RAM, but generally the machines have been workhorses. Being a frugal Yankee, I get the TPs from the Lenovo outlet, http://outlet.lenovo.com/, which seems to be down today. Great deals on lightly-used machines, recent vintage, and a short warranty (90 days, maybe?). -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
