As for the specs...
IBM Lenovo thinkpad w500
T9600 2.8 Dual Core
4 Gigz ram
v5700

approximate price... $2400

I was not in the video nor was the part of the destruction of the laptop, however I lived 2 rooms down. I posted this just for the entertainment value. Nor do i agree with such destructive behavior. I will also not release the name of the college, it is however somewhere in the top 50 schools in US.

And just for the record... the laptop is bulletproof... currently it still boots to windows with a completely messed up screen. the video shows only a quarter of what that laptop has been through (it was both overheated to 96 Celsius and stuck in a freezer overnight).
 
Solution
I'd gladly take that notebook and fix it since that ignorant ass wouldn't. He didn't even have major problems with it.

I know tons of people who could have put that machine to good use for the next 5+ years.
