I have some ThinkPad laptops I got off freecycle that I have been
thinking about getting running to replace our Dell Inspiron 600m.
The ThinkPads I have are:
lenovo R60, Type 9461-CTO, Product ID: 9461CTO
lenovo T500, Type 2242-CTO, Product ID: 2242CTO
I also have an ASUS M3000Np Notebook PC.
Are any of these worth the trouble to get them running?
Thanks,
Craig
