	Yeah, agree with you and Chad.   I bought a T600E in 2003;
	*total* cost for my 400Mz, 12GB-drive was $366, including maxing 
	out the memory to 288K and adding a 10/100 NIC.   And shipping.
	Runs fine, good remote sever, and I'll buy a 1.0-1.5+ ThinkPad
	next summer.  This is one thing that IBM got right.
