I picked up a T430 from eBay for less than $300 about 4-5 years ago. It worked great for me for a couple of years until it developed a weird issue that would freeze randomly under Windows. I never had the issue when using Linux. Since I needed Windows for a few applications, I handed it down to my son. He's been running Arch on it without issue to this day.
