So..
After having my notebook die, I was looking on ebay for a new thinkpad. I saw an old x200 that was about to end for what looked like a low price, and for some reason bid on it, and won.

I was planning on buying a new X series, but if I can make do with this for a few months it would be cool. Can anyone tell me what I could do to make this laptop useable? I will only use it for the regular web browsing/microsoft office/movies etc. I do use metastock a fair bit, but I believe its pretty resource light. I don't want to spend much money on it, because it's old, and i will probably upgrade soon.
Tl;dr Bought old thinkpad on ebay, what programs or hardware do I need to make it useable?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
Seems like your problem is not just this laptop but your whole buy everything attitude.

That'll be five thousand dollars.
Seriously though, maybe an SSD would help but the 1.5 hours battery life (when it was brand new) means it has to be connected to a socket at all times.
