I looked at the website and seriously considered this option.
IBM was having a special on the t40, though, that knocked off
roughly $400 from the sticker price, and provided free shipping.
The same setup from Emperor would have cost $2300 before tax.  I
paid under $1800.  Otherwise I would have preferred buying from
Emperor.
