Anybody interested in buying a TP701 should know that IBM is having a
special friend-of-an-employee discount program.  Basically, each employee
is allowed to sell a TP701 to five friends at a heavily discounted price. 
The top of the line 701C DX4/75 with 720MB drive was $2799.  Prices on
other models were similarly discounted.  If you visit comp.sys.laptops,
there are (or were) many IBM employees taking advantage of this offer
(they get a 701CS for almost free if they sell 5 this way), so you don't
have to personally know an IBM employee to take advantage of this offer.
