I've had a T23 for some years now and really enjoyed it. My natural
progression since I enjoy the weight and performance factors on the T
series was the T40. I bought one off of Overstock for less than 500.00 US
and upgraded a few things. I probalby spent about 650.00 total on it.
The T40 is a great laptop in all regards. Thin, easy to travel with,
great screen.
I think its a great progression of types.
