I've been thinking about running a new laptop under my old Thinkpad 
E530.  Specs:  Intel i3 4-core 2500 MHz, 4G RAM, 300G spinny disk, 
DVD+-RW, 1366x768 screen, 2 USB2 ports, Realtek GigE, Intel 802.11, 
bluetooth, SD card reader, big keyboard with numeric keypad.  Win7 on 
one partition which I can leave or not.  All hardware should work fine 
in any recent distro.  It was running perfectly last night.  Fleabay 
says a comparable machine is going for $137.95.  So make it slightly 
more convenient at $120?

The main problem is that I have to get a new laptop and verify that 
it's all working before I can sell this old machine.  Shipping from 
Lenovo takes a few days.  But if you would like to buy this old machine, 
I can get the "buy new laptop" part started, and deliver the old machine 
to somewhere in the greater Phoenix metro area, or to a PLUG meeting, or 
something like that once the new machine arrives.  What do you think?
