He lowered the price to 500 and wants to throw in a 40 gig seagate external drive.

1.6ghz Pentium M (sometimes also known as centrino), 512mb of DDR2 ram, CD/RW-DVD combo drive, Wifi 802.11b/g. Great laptop, need the money. Windows XP pro, Microsoft Office 2003.

40gb 5400rpm HD, The vid card is an ATI radeon xpress 200m.

I have a dell m140 xps laptop, intergrated graphics (which looks pretty horrible), 60gig, 7200 rpm, cd and dvd burner, Intel Pentuim M 740, 1.73, 512mb.

I have the media direct laptop (It plays dvd's with the power off).

I wanted more of a business laptop so I want to know should I spend the money and buy this laptop and [b944dcbfed4]sell[/b944dcbfed4] my dell?

It seems like a redundant move to me.

The laptop you currently have seems far better than the one listed. When you say you want more of a business laptop, what do you mean?

If he wants a business laptop than he should want something that is very travel friendly, has good battery life, and is dependable with medium to good stats.

Looks like it's totally up to you man. If I were you I'd do a little more research first. I wouldn't base my decision from people's posts in here (unless of course it's dmorris lol j/k heh).

I don't know shit about laptops, I usually ask my cousin since he's the really good tech guy but he said that my laptop has better specs.

I like the ibm's alot, love the look of them and they're pretty light but it's not worth it.

Yeah, Thinkpads are damned sexy. There's no shame in losing your head over one. ;)

Still, I don't see your [i48b7f2857f]need[/i48b7f2857f] to switch. If you wanted a light "business" Thinkpad, the new X series are the best.

Overrated by far.
