    600 to 750 USD is a fair price in USA. Also is your wireless card 5100 or 5300?

    Or just the perception of it being better. You could tout it as having better wifi antennas (since there are 3) which means better signal! Yay!

    Assuming your current laptop is not a ThinkPad, you might want to consider selling what you have and keeping the T400—it’s probably better than your current laptop.

    The OP have just got a MBP 13.3 laptop to replace the T400. So i don't think he would sell the newly bought MBP.

    For $600, I would buy it off you!!! But this is probably not the thread to discuss this, is it?
