I saw them in the local CompUSA store a few years ago at $99 off-lease!

My Thinkpads were upgrades from my Toshiba 1200XE with its racing 12 MHz 80C286 processor and a 20MB hard disk drive. It also had 1MB of RAM expandable to 5MB.

By the time I added a couple of MB of RAM and convert to US$ I probably paid about as much as for the T20 -- what really rocked me was later adding a 10in HP colour monitor!

What a difference from the blueish laptop screen!
