How about $8.95 per year. Try

I've used them for a year of so and am very happy with them.

Better than that, transfers are $7.95 including a one-year transfer
(and as I recall they honour the remaining time, so even if you've
got a couple of years left, you can switch now).
And it looks like there's a sale on .com now, $7.95 a year.

Hey all,
I have received much valuable information from this group.  Thanks to 
everyone that posted as it has been most helpful.  I will be using a faster hard 
drive along with the 1.0 GHz CPU, T-21 fan and ram.
Finally, how are the voltages, bus speed, and multiplier set.  Are there any 
BIOS settings or other software changes that are required in order change 
CPU's.  I have a service manual but I do not know anything about the system 
board's jumpers; if any.  Also feel free to add any other info you deem useful.
Thanks again,
Mike Scott

Just in case, let me correct one point.
I checked the sSpec name again. I think Intel's search engine is
something wrong and does not hit SL53S. Therefore my previous
post was somewhat confusing.
My point is, SL53S=SL58S=SL5TF.
These are all P3-1GHz coppermine micro-PGA2 CPU.which
work fine with T20. FYI, SL53S is the one most readily available
on the market among these three, and running in my T20.

OK. here are some specs. The 5k80 specs at 450mbps maximum transfer rate,
12ms average seek and 5.5ms average latency, while the 7k60 specs at
518mbps, 10ms and 4.2ms.
If you're doing a straight disk read of a large file, the faster drive could
be 15% faster.
If you're doing database with essentially random tasks, (hmmm.... 12+5.5+0
versus 10+4.2+0) depending on how one does the math, the new drive could do
23% more operations per unit time. I'd say that's very noticeable.
But man, if you're going at a full rate of over 50MB/s, you're taking a good
chunk of memory bandwidth. I'd say if you've got a very old machine with
PC66 memory (and a very slow CPU to go with that), then you won't notice the
disk speed increase much... but then I wouldn't be putting either of these
drives in such an old machine.

Subject: [Thinkpad] Thinkpad T40 and Sniffer - Does not work
Message: 12
Hi All,
I have an IBM Thinkpad Windows XP and comes with 11a/b
integrated.
The problem I am having is none of sniffer
applications
can work with Wireless LAN card 11a/b/g, neither with
the one integrated 802.11a/b nor Netgear nor Dlink PC
card 802.11a/b/g.  
for example the apps : Ethereal (www.ethereal.com)
Netboys, Sniffer Pro, et.  
None of these Apps can detect and capture the packets
from integrated 802.11a/b/g or any Wireless PC card
I am sure that these apps work with any notebooks and
any network card, wired or wireless - I verified (of
course, these apps will not be able to capture the
802.11 packets/frames, it mainly captures regular
wired ethernet packet fames).
On the same system T40, all of these apps can detect
and capture the packets from integrated 100/1000
ethernet port.
I called IBM tech-supp, they said that IBM does not
support the thirdparty software and does not support
any sniffer apps.    They support only the software
installed on the system.  Sure they Don't care for
Interoperability  nor Compatibility with other devices
/ software.
I would like to share my negative experience with
anyone is planning to purchase IBM thinkpad and have a
need to run the network sniffer app.  Please
investigate and do more researches before actually buy
it. 
I am very disappointed with IBM, I don't know which 
application on T40 that prevents the sniffer apps to
perform the capture (even thou it can detect and be
select the Wireless integrated, But no capture).
Do you have any such problem with your IBM thinkpad? 
If you have integrated or any PC card of 802.11x then
try to download www.ethereal.com and try capturing
packets from this PC card.
Anyone know how can I uninstall the IBM mobile,
connection  or the QCWLICON.exe and QCon*.exe
 
Thank you
Timolthy
