I bought a T420, used, for $200 when I went away to college. I added an SSD to it, making the total around $300.
Six years later, it's still my only personal laptop: it's got all the specs I need[1], and works perfectly with Linux. The only downside to it is finding new batteries; I suppose that's why TFA is building their own ;)
[1]: All I do on it is browse the web, watch videos via MPV, send emails, and program.
