    If you're handy with a screwdriver, they're easy to work on. It's worth   
    opening them up, blowing out all of the dust from the nooks and   
    crannies inside, replacing the fan if it's making noise, and replacing   
    the thermal paste on the CPU.   
      
   Parts on eBay are cheap - I replaced the fan for around $10, I've seen   
   keyboards for under $30, and if you want to put it back to original   
   condition, there are screw cover sets on eBay, so you can replace those   
   little adhesive covers over the visible screws.   
      
   Lenovo publishes a hardware maintenance manual for most of their systems   
   with the steps outlined clearly for most replacements.   
      
   Now that the BBS is running in a virtual machine, I should dust off my   
   T60 and make it usable as a plain ol' laptop again.   
      
      
      
      
      
   ... Faced with a choice, do both.
