Lol at paying more than $50 for a laptop.
10 years old IBM plus Linux = win.
People practically give these things away cause they can barely run Windows XP (and for sure not 7 or Win 10).
They can easily run some lightweight Linux Debian and work perfectly fine as workhorse machines (make a SWAP file for extra RAM). No one can tell either how old they are since every IBM Thinkpad used to look the same.
