im not really the authority on this shit because my main technological interest is just pc hardware... lol rip. But i couldnt ever say this was a bad investment.. 30 dollars for a working 4chan/porn machines pretty damn good

Pretty gud. Does the battery still work? Consider replacing the cells if it does not.
Battery is the 8cell one, 87% gud says tlp. When its fails I'll get a new one.

good. I have a x61t (same cpu options and shit, just a fancy spinny tablet thing) and it is comfy af. I have 4gb of ram and the high end cpu though.

Not bad anon. I still regret giving mine away after years of faithful service.

You can buy a Broadwell motherboard/CPU upgrade for it from China, but you'll want the slim cooler option because you got the s model.
