Since the thread is titled Blackbook for $50, I thought I'd post a couple of pics and some info about the one I picked up tonight for the same price. It's an '06 T7200 model; 2.0ghz C2D processor, with a gig of RAM and 120 gb hard drive. The battery holds a half-hour charge, half of the keyboard is dead, and the optical drive is flaky, but it's in good shape otherwise. It has the typical chips on the top case, and is a bit worn, but the screen is nice and bright and it runs great. I'm currently installing Lion on a 500gb hard drive, using my girlfriend's '09 MBP, that I'm going to swap in, and I've got a couple of spare 1gig sticks of RAM that I'm going to swap the 512s with. This machine will be replacing my DP2.0ghz G5 as my music recording machine, and the G5 is going to be a mule to experiment with Debian Jessie.
