Hardware - December 2006

I bought my new laptop a week ago and the price was 1500$. Right now is 150$ less at Bestbuy. I purchased my laptop from there - Bestbuy, and I'm thinking to return my laptop and get a new one with a lower price. Is this possible?

While shopping on Ebay for a new battery. I found the conventional Li-Ion Battery for IBM Thinkpad 600 Series, which cost about $30. I also found what is suppose to be the "NEW" Thinkpad 600/600E/600X CMOS/BIOS battery, costing $2.95. What is the difference in the two batteries and which one should I purchase?
