Lenovo Thinkpad T42 2373 1.7GHz 40GB 14.1-inch Laptop (Refurbished)

This laptop has everything we wanted. I bought it for my son, since he takes internet classes and without a laptop it's almost impossible. I didn't want to spent a lot of money, and I did not want Windows Vista that comes with all brand new laptops. Now if you want Windows XP loaded on a new computer, it costs you $100 more. Set up was easy, even though there was no manual since it is a refurbished model. But we were guided by on-screen menu, and it was a breeze. This laptop has fingerprint recognition as an option for password, my son loved that. It is completely web-ready, fast and light. Totally great buy for the money we paid.

I enjoy my (refurbished) ThinkPad, so much, that the first day I received it I was on it nearly 24 hours. I didn't expect the quality I received. It had everything I needed including wireless internet. The price was affordable and well worth it. Although, I did make one HUGE mistake. I hit the IBM button (oops!), which will do a recovery, and found out that you will loose everything and I do mean everything on your computer and there is not a disk available. And being refurbished you will have to call a toll free number for service that may charge for every incident you need help repairing. So, for all you first time buyers please read the instructions before tinkering with your Thinkpad, or this could happen to you too and you could spend tireless hours trying to rectify the problem. This was the first time I've ordered from Overstock and I must say the delivery time was excellent, I was able to track the package until it arrived. Since, buying my Lenovo, I've already purchased another item from Overstock and again I was able to track the package, and received it in a timely manner. I would recommend this Lenovo to anyone who is looking to buy a reasonable affordable laptop. I think you will enjoy it as much as me! (just don't make the same mistake I did!)

I wanted a laptop to handle emails, web searching with wireless feature. This laptop has met all of my needs. It is a great laptop!

I bought this refurb T42 a year ago from Overstocks. Their delivery is fast and reliable. The computer has been solid and a real bargain to own. Yes, you will probably have to go out and update the software - but that's a small inconvenience for the system that you're getting and the money you save. I also added more memory for $40 and it did make the system much faster. This really is a great deal.

This is a referbished IBM ThinkPad. It was shipped promptly and arrived several days ahead of schedule. It works perfectly..
