Lenovo ThinkPad T61 Review
Tuesday, October 21st, 2008 | Laptop reviews | No Comments
Lenovo ThinkPad T series has 3 models, T400 and T500. I will review T61 model. T400 had 14.1″ screen instead of 15.4″.
Configuration - Intel Core 2 Duo 2.1 GHz T8100 with 800 MHz FSB and 3 MB L2 Cache. 1 GB DDR2 SDRAM. 80 GB HDD at 5400 rpm. No Bluetooth. Ultravnav. DVD Recordable 8X, has 128 MB Dedicated NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M. Supports Wi-Fi, 6 cell Li-Ion Battery.
15.4 inch WXGA Widescreen TFT. Comes within 1 year depot warranty. The only drawback i feel is 80 GB HDD. A PC must at least have 160 GB HDD in today’s time.
OS - Windows Vista Home basic. Priced at $860 on lenovo’s official website.

One brand which offers one of the biggest range of laptops suiting your needs is lenovo at some very good price. In ThinkPad, SL series is the lowest priced series with models starting from $570 and up to $980. I will write about SL500 model, the higher end one released new.
Configuration - Intel Core 2 Duo processor P8400 2.26 GHz (1066 MHz and 3 MB L2 cache), 2 GB DDR2 SDRAM, 160 GB HDD at 5400 rpm, 8x DVD Writer, Graphics card is NVidia GeForce, No bluetooth and no fingerprint reader in this series. Plus has Integrated AT&T 3G Broadband, Supports Wi-Fi.
15.4″ WXGA Screen. 6 - cell lithium ion battery. 1 year warranty.

This model is perfect for work load and you can buy this one if you really like lenovo brand. This piece is priced at $980. Also you can get a bit low specs piece in the same series for $560 and $740 with major difference lying in RAM, HDD and Processor. You can even customize the configuration on it website as per your needs and get it delivered in about 10-14 days.
Lenovo Thinkpad Series

Lenovo Thinkpad series has some fantastic notebooks designed for both gaming, business and home work. They have some excellent features and accessories which you wont find anywhere else. Even the Ideapad series has some rocking and sexy looking laptops. I suppose i was wrong that lenovo have no good notebooks. One thing i have seen is that including lenovo and other brands, you will find better and cheaper models in US than in India. I will soon write about some cool new models. What has actually attracted me towards lenovo recently is the quality of notebooks and accessories they provide and plus wide array of interesting new features to try out in notebooks.
