Excellent

The ThinkPad T61p is yet another sturdy, powerful, and flexible laptop from Lenovo.

Among its strengths are its super solid feel, confirmed by users and experts alike. Powerful is the best word to describe its Intel Core 2 Duo T7700, which runs at 2.4 GHz, and the 2 GB of DDR2 memory. Users report the T61p runs multiple operating systems and a broad range of applications effortlessly, and this T61p comes with Windows Vista Ultimate. For video, the T61p sports the Nvidia Quadro FX 570M, itself packed with 256 MB of memory. Whether on a long flight, or near the tail end of a 12-hour day, unwind with your favorite real-time strategy or MMORPG, the T61p can handle it.

The T61p has 100 GB, 7200 RPM hard drive, so you’re never left wanting for space or read/write speeds. Users also report excellent battery life, in the neighborhood of 6 hours – more than adequate for most continental flights. While you’re on the go, never fear: whether connecting to dialup, LAN, or a wireless network, the T61p covers all the bases with a 56k modem, gigabit Ethernet adapter, and an 802.11a/b/g wireless card.

The T61p is what many businesses rely on for their workforce, due to its versatility and hard-hitting performance, and many home users choose it for the same reasons. Why not make it yours?

Back in September we took a look at the new R-Series ThinkPad the R61, now it is time for the T-Series. As we explained in the R61 review the T-Series is the pricier of the 2 ThinkPad series, as it has a more powerful processor and graphics. With ultr......

If the Lenovo ThinkPad T61p were a car, it would be known in street-racer circles as a sleeper: no glossy paint, no chrome trim--just a plain-Jane exterior with enough horsepower to blow the doors off all comers. Add in the ThinkPad lines excellent ma......

The guy above doesn't know what the heck he's talking about. First of all, T30 is considered to be the worse T series ever produced, alright. There's T20/21/22/23 and T40/41/42/43, but T30 had only one model, there was never a T31 and T32/33. I started...
