This has been discussed in the past and it is NOT a good deal, unless you really want a low end lightweight machine more than something with a reasonable configuration. This was the low-end X20, I believe it's only 800x600 display and it really is not worth any more than this price. This is also a really old version, the X20 has been discontinued for some time now.

Remember, you get what you pay for.

Not true all the time. Why do you think this forum exists?!?

Here is a link to some tech specs. You're right about the display:
Display Type 12.1&quot; TFT active matrix integrated
Max Resolution 24-bit (16.7M colors) / 800 x 600
But on a good note:
Max Resolution (external) 16-bit (64K colors) / 1600 x 1200
Memory / Video Installed ( Max ) 4 MB ( 4 MB ) - SGRAM
Video Output Graphic card - AGP 2x - ATI RAGE MOBILITY M integrated

--- at bottom ---
Isn't this a decent price for memory for ThinkPad's?
S21-2407 128MB MEMORY $59.99
S21-2411 256MB MEMORY $159.99

Fine, how about if I add &quot;at Tiger Direct&quot;? I just feel sorry for people who order this low end machine not realizing that there are a number of different X20 models. When people post stuff like this, they should include the actual model number so it is easy to compare.
