I have an old x61s, so it's not even as old as this. It does work perfectly. However the screen is bad--very dim, even on maximum brightness. It seemed fine back then but compared to the x230 I would never go back. Otherwise, though, there's nothing about the machine that makes it antiquated for most uses (web, video, etc.) Even the 1024 x 768 would be tolerable were it not for the dimness.
