I used a T60 as a second monitor for my main laptop and an X40 as my travel laptop. Together they cost well under $150 and I could probably sell them today for what I paid for them. Great machines (although the T60 has a fan speed problem that I fixed with some third party software--without the fix it would be so annoying as to be unusable for me.)

I had the same thing with my T61. It was due to the sense wire on the fan being crimped slightly between the keyboard and roll cage assembly. I managed to fix it with some wiggling of the wire without resorting to fan control software. I also took the entire thing to bits and replaced the heatsink goo with Arctic Silver.

I paid approx $150 for this T61.
