no problem

btw how bout u google the benefit of dual channel for me?

i always feels tht dual channel is not important for laptop, as the limitations of chipset and processor eg 400mhz, 533mhz, 667mhz, plus 2 stick ram = more power consumption if there's a choice giving 1.5gb ddr2 533 single channel vs 1gb ddr2 667 dual channel, i'll rather go for higher ram capacity

unless i'm on a desktop, dual channel will give more significant result, as the proc is 800mhz or higher, with additional OC, we'll only make use of dual channel maybe i'm wrong, but thts my analysis so far

@bezitagt, here's the bency done by notebookreview.com

dual channel may actually slower in certain extent?

@superflc, yeah thts theorictically, but when comes to real application, it doesnt give much improvement, u can try benchmark it with everest or sisoft sandra, or even better use real application like winrar or others

from wat i understand, if it was last time where p4 ht fsb is 800mhz, while ddr1 400mhz using dual channel, p4 ht will utilise it better, but now the ram is already 667mhz same as proc, so it wont differs much, thus ddr2 533 dual channel should performs better than ddr2 667 on core duo 667fsb due to tighter timing

same to u

well i guess it's RM3388 at pc fair, added RM1 for another 512mb, it's a core 2 duo t5500 and 80gb man!

envy envy, we r still on t2300e n 60gb, but still feel it's strong enuf to run my task

hi

as long as it's the same frequency and timing, it should be fine

if possible, always get the same brand and frequency, if not, it's ok too

to secure, seek for seller who refunds incompatibility issue

A great news to R60 users

a new bios had been released changing 128MB shared to 224MB

guess tht it should help better in aero glass effect, cheers

@superlfc, yeah running on 224MB now

and why wanna send back for warranty? i got dead pixel, but nvr reach 8 dots yet thus cant claim warranty

use software

ic, thanks

anyhow just get to know tht ibm centre is shifted to 1U, will officially launched on 19dec2006

so far only seen Stupox using it, most of us here are using R60 w T2300E which bought around 2-3 months ago, and all of us are satisfying and enjoying it

i used AHCI as it should runs faster theoretically, but we cant sense the difference in real life

yeah, it's better to take it out as other laptops if u wan to maximize ur battery lifespan even the software (power management) will stop it from charging when it's full, but thts only apply in windows.. if u are shutting down or restart, the software will stop function and ur battery will continue charging

i guess other buyer will help? most of us here are directly bought from reseller, which means cash and carry

yes, the power manager will stop it when it's full, but u r still advised to take out as bobby said

maybe ur fren's is an incidental case, i nvr face such problem before where i had taken out and put it back for tons of time if ur fren theory is true, then y the notebook manufacturer design it tht way?

if u wan to keep ur battery for long time, it's advisable to drain ur battery till 30-40%, and it'll be able to keep it around 1 year

thts no problem with ur cable, probably u tick the extend ur display in ur display properties

just open ur video, then u drag over the player to ur right, then u r done! they are actually independent display, so u can now view video and do ur work at once

anyone here has the lenovo "peacock" wallpaper?

i like its contrast, any can pls share? cant find on website though

@ClieNut Gadget Freak, this is the peacock wallpaper i mean

Pic from notebook review, anyone has it?

looks u hv got a good deal (t5500, 1gb ram, 80gb hdd, external 80gb hdd, pc dos), how much u bought?

IBM had given in people a professional image, whenever people think bout IBM, people will think bout business + formal looking laptop.. the unique design also gives the engineer to concentrate on the internal electronic design, hence u'll notice IBM normally comes w less heat

business people wants their data to be secured rather than high end spec/ multimedia, hence u'll notice IBM built quality surpasses others laptop, yet their spec is always lower than other brand laptop.. however IBM has the best keyboard, 10 out of 10 people will start to like typing after using it, and becoz of its durability housing, u'll enjoy moving it around, unlike other multimedia laptop, i care less bout it and up till now it's still as tough as i first bought

or

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/194567/+643

just go control panel>mouse>ultranav and u'll c the option there

or u can just continue holding the power button for few seconds, it'll force it to shut down, this technique applies the same to every laptop n pc

depends on model

i think TPM is available on all R60, but fingerprint should depends

from the list only 9455A49 has fingerprint reader
