hi there, IBM R52 owner here. i just got it for 2 months.
Spec: -Centrino 1.7Ghz -512DDRII -40GB ( not enought for me  )-chipset 915GM ( VGA onbard) that spec is higher than my previous one,R40. but the performance seem no better at all. R40 has one the best heatsink / cooling system that i have ever known. its so cool even after long time continous running. but the R52 is a little bith hotter. Austin : my previous R40 need only 13s to boot and load windown  but my recent r52 need around 20s |

I used to have T21 and T23.
The T21 got stolen and T23 was sold to Austin. Currently, I am having IBM X23. The spec is as below: PIII 866Mhz 640 SDRAM 30gig HDD Docking station with floopy and DVDROM Of all the notebooks that I had and having now, this is my favourite one. Sadly, it doesnt have build in wifi (some X23 comes with it). However, I am using Cisco Aironet 350 wifi card to go wireless. I used to have 2 Cisco cards but I included 1 the guy who bought my T23. Previous IBM T21 spec: PIII 900Mhz (upgraded processor) 30gigHDD 512 SDRAM Combo drive Floppy drive Previous IBM T23 spec: You can refer this to Austin's posting. Of all the IBM I had, the T23 felt fastest. T21 comes second and X23 is third but not too far from T21. I love the X23 so much that I seldom use it. I only use it when I go hot spot to surf net. Bought a second battery for it too. The one which I use everyday is A TwinHead P4 2.2Ghz (bought from Austin). Damn nice and robust machine. Comes with Magnesium casing. This is also my favourite after the X23. |

I m using M40 here..
Personally i dun feel like to go for IBM..Why? 1. Comservative 70's or 80's design.. 2. Trackpoint is a big NO to me...Imaging pointing a little finger on a nipple thingy to move ur cursor r not big fun 3. Normal LCD screen 4. Normal specs with no advance graphic cards 5. Not made in Japan liao... What I like about IBM 1. Good batt life 2. Solid magnesium casing |

notebook.com.my quoted the z series at 5599. but i don't know whether that's a the t or m version.
went to LYP last week and asked abt the z series. no news yet from anyone on its arrival. probably very soon coz the press announcement was already last week. |

My team lead is using the Tablet X41.
What I can tell is, it is fantastic...everything is perfect. Size, speed, "stamina", etc...... By the way, I am working for IBM actually.....but now IBM PCD department already acquired by Levnovo, the largest IT company in China, which means all ThinkPad and ThinkCentre in Malaysia are now selling by Lenovo Malaysia. But I can graurantee the quality or our product will be as good as last time....even better...... This post has been edited by albertykf: Oct 22 2005, 02:08 PM |

The only authorized IBM Walk In service center in Malaysia beside IBM HQ is located at Notebook Shop KL Sentral, can drop off your notebook for service on weekend and public holiday also. Sometimes it could be done within the same day if the parts is available from IBM Warehouse.

Went to Lowyat on 1st day of raya.... most ibm resellers (techdos included) don't have stock.... went to Midvalley on Sat - same result. Spoke to couple of dealers, they aren't too sure when they'll get a sample of the Z's but most of them are sure that it'll be the 'm' version that will be in first.

I asked them and they checked (both midvalley and lowyat). Kinda like Dell selling the inspiron 630m. Got promo-promo, but no stock wan.They were the ones who advised me that the "m" version will be in first, but no indication as to when the"t" model will arrive. Guess in the meantime, can still shop around for alternatives.  This post has been edited by eviltofu: Nov 8 2005, 08:30 PM |

QUOTE(albertykf @ Oct 22 2005, 02:03 PM) My team lead is using the Tablet X41. Of course lah, since you're working at IBM... What I can tell is, it is fantastic...everything is perfect. Size, speed, "stamina", etc...... By the way, I am working for IBM actually.....but now IBM PCD department already acquired by Levnovo, the largest IT company in China, which means all ThinkPad and ThinkCentre in Malaysia are now selling by Lenovo Malaysia. But I can graurantee the quality or our product will be as good as last time....even better...... |

Anyway colleague just got an R50e Celeron model. I had a test and I find that the build quality and housing quality is good. Also it is a silent performer. Only thing is that I find the LCD kind of dark and blur. Was trying to adjust using those settings in software and the Fn key but still looks a bit dark for me (as compared to my Satellite 2410 screen).

have anyone of you encounter any problem with the warranty from IBM malaysia. coz i got one unit of thinkvision lcd. the problem is flickering and so.
it takes up to more than a month to be repaired and the worse thing is that after repaired the lcd getting worst. last time still able to be use and able to read the text on the lcd, but not for now. the ibm even scratch the lcd. and one more thing, the engineer come in with 2 hands empty. no documents at all for me to sign. this is scary man. he just give me a name card, saying he is from ibm. thats all nothing else. anyone can just duplicate the name card and come in to my office and said that they are from ibm. is this the kind of service i pay to buy IBM? this is the worst ever service i ever recieve from so many IT comany (HP Compaq and dell) |

Stil can use. It's not too noticeable. They told me it was a physical damage.. cannot claim. But the other problem is a part which is brighter. That one need to send in for diagnosis few days i think. So stil thinking whether I wan to send in after my hol o not.. Scare like situation that our forumer face after sent in, the laptop become worse.

sorry ,didnt ask them for the look ,should be pure black gua ,hehe. mghong you can add ram urself. Change HDD ... I dont think so. Change ram ,not sure abt this . 3-4k? R52 1858NA2 is very nice but not selling in PC-FAIR ,RRP only RM3988 maybe u can negotiate with the sales girl from techdos in PC-FAIR and ask them for discount or freegift if they still have stock in HQ. so in my flyer thats no good and nice centrino model in the budget from 3-4K . |

mana ada RM83XX ?? for Z60m thats 1 black and 1 Titanium mode ,price as below. Z60m(Titanium) 2531A11 RM6,988 (free upgrade to IBM original 512 ram, free IBM 256MB pendrive ,free wireless optical Mouse ,USB all in one card reader ,travel adapter ,cleaner kit ,USB keyboard vakuum cleanne) Normal lah they sure will give u a battery and Carrying case. there is many accessories u can purchase go thinkpad website check yourself. BTW ,they give u free 1 256mb ram ,so I dnt think u still got slot to add yourself add in wouldn't void warranty SO-DIMM DDR2 Kingston should can fit in ,as I slot in my A-DATA oso no proble. |

As long as the RAM is compatible and there is a free slot you can upgrade it yourself by removing the cover. If you can get 2pcs of 512 MB RAM to make it 1GB I think should be enough.
Anyway I'm not sure how much difference 1GB makes on a notebook but can feel some speed gain after upgrading desktop to 1GB. Anyway my notebook came with 256MB and I added another 256 to make it 512MB so there is no problem...really.

that one is specialize order from lenovo ,and not 100% they will manufacture for you also. and Normally its super stupid spec with super expensive price. You better get this model Z60m(Titanium) 2531A11 RM6,988 the stupid 2530E9A came with 2.0 but dnt have 128MB X600 ,so its super not worth it. Since PC-FAIR is over , but u still can call out techdos office and negotiate the offer woh ^^ |

Not really problematic la.. D LCD might be caused by myself. The combo drive doesn't have any problem recently. Thank God. And the careless thingy caused by myself had made my sticker teared off.. Any idea where can replace d sticker?
So Lipyeung, just go ahead with IBM. No worries. I still use my lappy everyday w/o any problem since d LCD thingy not really noticeable. This post has been edited by CalvinCLK: Dec 6 2005, 11:17 PM |

It still works and its quite reliable (except had to change my HD once in 2004 - due to the klak-klak sound) - but the batt now lasts only 1 hour They are business machines and not really meant for gaming or much entertainment stuff. Take it as that and you won't be dissapointed. However I did run lucasart's Jedi Knight (1&2) on it sometime back Got quite hot.... and somehow playing shooter games with the red-rubber pointer takes sometime to get used to. The main attraction that the Thinkpad has to me is its build since its able to take abuse better than the rest (my previous Dell lat hinge went to pieces - oxidation of the grey plastics due to heat and my personal compaq also suffered damage around the corners). Since the lack of local Z60T purchase options (and lowered specs) - I might settle for the HP nc6230 for my own purchase. I think its comparable to the Thinkpad T in terms of size and built (magnesium top and lower half) and 3 year warranty. Read a review somewhere - IBM's are like BMWs (solid premium built machines - even if their specs aren't too exotic), HP's (n-type) are like VW/Volvos (hardy and can get the job done)... cheers.... |

yoh.. u dnt knw kah ? IBM casing if full titanium or aluminium already (forgot already ,sorry) but R is the most lausy loh but still consider more solid compare with Acer and others ,haha Lipyueng Dnt knw ,so many notebook now days ask China factory to manufacture parts and assembly in their own factory. But I dnt think will become bad too much as the technicion support and designer everyone has been transfer from IBM to lenovo oso. |

Sure I know.. More solid.. But ugly like wat my fren said.. though i personally do not feel so.. I feel classic style for such casing.. haha
As long as they dun loosen the quality control. I don't think the quality goes down. But for Acer and other brands dunno lor.. |

If you want 1G RAM, then you gotta buy additional 1GB RAM. Plus the default RAM 256 tat will be 1G + 256MB = 1080MB. Ask for free gift if possible.

aiks.. holiday till my math calculation also become lousy.. haha.. standard one math oso cannot calculate well.. Ya.. the RAM is indeed not enough, got to add another stick. For me, I got 512MB RAM free when I purchased my laptop. If you are in tight budget, try considering to add 512MB 1st.. Or ask for free RAM upgrade.
jamezco: Yes. It's KTM-TP3840/1G. It's possible that the performance will increase if u use IBM certified RAM. For me 512 + 256 is enough. Dunno if it's enough for u o not.. This post has been edited by CalvinCLK: Dec 13 2005, 08:44 PM |

I think so... me 768 also mah... Speed not bad. Normally 1 laptop provide 2 slot so if it come with 256 ,then u only got 1 more free slot loh. Cnet.com review normally quite true on battery life. |

Congrats!
Press the Access IBM button and go from there. Make sure the ThinkVantage app called software installer is installed as well. It'll make life a breeze in keeping your drivers upto date directly with Lenovo. Can update BIOS too. Other app to have is Access Connections to manage my multiple network configs automatically (if you like to go wireless at home, coffeehouse, foodcourt & work). cheers.

from my experience, usually the price is not so much different la. last time (pc-fair at penang), found out they sell things quite pricey lah. aiyoo dunno why. if i'm the one who's going to spend the money, i won't wait until pc-fair. maybe BEFORE pc-fair or AFTER pc-fair (unsell/left stock is same price/cheaper from pc-fair) but not at that time. i just bought anything below RM1k at pc-fair. but that's me. it's up to u.

Normally those with 3D accelerator run hot and consume more battery unless the battery is upgraded. Anyway mine is also the same. Mine is mobile Geforce 4.

R51e is not a Centrino platform ? Sure ?
 Hope someone can confirm. I don't see the Centrino Logo on the Lenovo Newspaper ad but there are many traders saying it is. Thinkpad is on my list. So this is of interest to meQUOTE(lgs @ Jan 3 2006, 04:10 PM) bundle with pc dos all is R51E ,some more not centrino platform.. |

Hi,
I just want to ask everyone here, did you purchase the 3 years extended warranty when you bought your ThinkPad? Is this option worth the RM800 price which worked to RM400 per year (2 extended years + 1 )? Or is it more worth it to send it to non-IBM-authorised repairman if its broken after the warranty? I'm in a dilemma! Please advice. WT |

no idea, cos I always buy the thinkpad with 3yrs warranty one.
But then for some R series it is better for you to buy the extended warranty plan as notebook LCD and motherboard parts are very expensive if buy from retail shop. |

Yes... IBM never seems to change the squarish Thinkpad design. Always the same look. But if you take one look you know it is an IBM.

Hello guys,
IBM owns share in lenovo (some 13% i think). Thinkpad is IBM designed & trademark, so of course the design wont change. Its tough and durable- well known- PS: i dont work for Lenovo ok, so im not trying to sell their products!!! |

I have a question;
I own an IBM R51. I just downloaded their latest drivers and updates because my laptop has been running too slow and lagging. I did see some changes after all the downloads but there is one BIOS upgrade which I am relatively confused. I restarted my PC, and they prompt me a table DOS style with a Main Menu printed on the top. I did what was instructed but there was no telling whether the BIOS is being updated or anything. So I exit the Main Menu without updating my BIOS I am curious is is necessary because it wrote Mandatory but nothing happened when I tried to update it. Did anyone know what am I talking about and succeeded in doing it which could tell me what to do? Another question is; do you realised the ventilation fan is very loud?! Or is it because of my laptop only? |

I know the heatsink is there but I do not remember having it running so noisily when I first bought it. In fact it goes on and off quite frequentyly in an hour. Is it because my laptop is warm thats why it triggers the fan? If I would to put additional RAM, will it be safe then? |

greetings, any know is there a way to reset the Supervisor Password in ThinkPad? I got a T23, the #*$&@ user go play the BIOS and forgot the password. I checked the ThinkPad manual, the Supervisor password is not resettable, you'd have to change the whole MOBO. what worst, it locks out the HDD as well.
This is the Supervisor password, not normal password, it's not resettable by removing the CMOS battery. So pls dont post "have to try remove the CMOS battery?". |

And mine is not from Malaysia. It is the same right? Just wanna make sure I am doing the right thing.. Another thing I wanna ask. I am going to add more RAM into my notebook and I am using SODIMM PC333 (I think) but I was thinking of getting some other brands, it is safe? Or shall i stick to SODIMM on the safer side? Currently I am on 256mb. If I add 512mb, it should be ohkie right? I mean, should I stick to 2 256mbs or I can have 1 256mb and 1 512mb? If I could not have both different sizes, I can change both to 512 right? I mean, its easy to remove the current existing one I have, right?

Hi guys!
I've just bought my first laptop, an IBM ThinkPad R51 2888N01 model! I am proud to say that I'm one of those people who own an excellent laptop... =) Here is my ThinkPad's specs: ThinkPad R51 2888N01 P M 725, 768MB RAM, 40GB 4200rpm HDD, 15 XGA(1024x768) TFT LCD, Intel Extreme, 24x10x24x/8x CD-RW/DVD, Intel 802.11b/g wireless(MPCI), Modem(CDC), 10/100 Ethernet(LOM), UltraNav, Secure Chip, 6c Li-Ion battery, WinXP Pro I got it for RM 3699 at Low Yat Plaza which includes a 3 years warranty and a free 512MB RAM, a Dicota backpack and Logitech Notebook+ mouse. I'm quite please with my laptop except for the fact that it wasn't installed with Rescue & Recovery. I tried in vain trying to download that piece of software via my internet browser (FireFox and IE) and Software Installer but it just stops downloading before it finishes! Its very frustrating but the rest of the updates can be downloaded, only this. Anyone having this problem? I'm now using Acronis True Image for backups. I like ThinkPad's softwares and I wish I could download R&R. This post has been edited by wt_vinci: Feb 7 2006, 07:48 PM |

QUOTE(kyliemin @ Feb 7 2006, 06:38 AM) right.. so it's ohkie to mix and match the brands and the MBs of the ram right? It is usually okay to mix the MBs of the ram, so 256 + 512 is fine. (why no one asnwer this question for me one? I just want to be 100% sure before I kill my baby!!) But about the brand, usually there isnt any prob with Kingston/Twinmos but I am not so sure in this area though normally most notebook shops knows which 3rd party ram to use .Also based on your spec stated earlier, most likely you're using PC2700 DDR type of ram. Important when buying If ventilation fan is killing you, try getting a nb cooler? Hope it helps edit: typo This post has been edited by coolkid: Feb 24 2006, 12:06 AM |

z60t is about 900grams less than z60m, screen both are wide screen model, but z60t is 14" wxga, z60m is 15.4".
Titanium top cover is optional for both model if you can afford to pay more. Personally I wil go for z60t because of it's slim and slick design weighted at 1.99kg only. z60m basically has no difference from my current HP Compaq nx7010 except for higher spec. If you love larger WXGA Screen by carrying 900grams more, not a bad choice though. |

thinkpads actually have a hidden area where they keep your recovery files. you would see it in "disk management"

Hi, got my T43 today from company.
Found two dead (or stuck?) pixels....trying to repair it tonight by looping the flash video. Btw I notice there are too many applications that do the same thing as Windows one (like the wireless connection, Microsoft update etc...which makes the system loo a bit bloated) And another complaint  The center blue trackpoint scrolling doesn't work for firefox. Otherwise it's fine (as in the feel when I type and also the design) |

Hello Everyone,
I would like to know if anyone here is interested to purchase the new Thinkpad T60 with dual core processor. I do understand that currently in KL/Malaysia there are only 2 models and at very EXPENSIVE PRICES. However, I am proposing to purchase T60s from the US and bringing them back to Malaysia in June. If anyone is interested, please feel free to PM and I will be glad to assist you in any way. Thank you. Dennis P.S. THINKPADs are the BEST!!!! |

Well, I've finally made my choice on which laptop to buy.
It's going to be a Lenovo Z61m Now just gotta wait for it to be announced (May or June) and wait for the resellers in Malaysia to get a hold of it. The T60 is quite a good laptop as well, but nobody seems to stock it. Better to get the wide screen edition which is the z60m but it's not core duo. So better to wait for the z61m (the core duo version) All the thinkpads have superbly sturdy bodies, good physical security and data security and good warranty as well. Cost is a little higher though. Gotta upgrade to International warranty to 3 years or so. This post has been edited by refnulf: Apr 27 2006, 02:41 PM |

I found it great! Money well spent The X60s has mono speakers too and it don't sound great Need to use earphone or external speakers to get good sound though. I really like the magnesium alloy casing and ThinkLight This lappy is fast too. Manage to calculate Super PI (1MB) at only 37.xx second  |

Cool, that really is good value for money...
Actually despite the minor flaws, i went for the ThinkPad mainly because of friends and shop recommendations and not really for the price (which, at 3.8k, is a good bargain!)... |

I chose ThinkPad cause it's one 'serious-no-play-play' looking laptop
Besides that, heard many saying ThinkPads are tough and durable. |

QUOTE(tc23 @ May 17 2006, 05:51 PM) Hi Thrust, There are 2 X series, The X60 and X60s (s denoted processor with Low Voltage). X60 pentium M are without low voltage feature. It starts from 1.2kilo and if it adds in the 8cell battery, might weigh around 1.5kilo. I bought it for 7k but I can get it cheaper through contacts. All IBM machine has international warranty. This has unit 3 years and LCD and battery covers the 1st year only. Bear in mind the X60s doesn't comes with built-in optical drives. It comes together seperately how much you baught ur Thinkpad x60? i really like the spec and the lightwight.. What about the graphics? is it got international warranty provided by IBM? thks.. Graphics card is from Intel GMA 950. Not suitable for gaming.This post has been edited by Thrust: May 17 2006, 06:09 PM |

performance wise its definately faster than single core but if we were to use only for web browsing, typing and music listening there wont be much difference between single and dual core.
Btw, anyone of you guys here heard of the battery drain bug issue? My extended battery can only last me 5hours with USB mouse plugged in. With mouse, i can squeeze 8hours of battery life. |

Thats true... And at least the ThinkPad is not so heavy until it causes backache! The weight is just right to carry around.. But of course if you are loading that thing for hours on end, then it will break your shoulders lah! And yups, its excellent for word-processing, PowerPoint, Excel, even running not-too-high performance games such as Championship Manager 2006 as well as playing MP3 for hours on end! |

If it can at least reduce the waiting time during bootup and shutdown of IBM ThinkPads, then the app should be worth it... This post has been edited by ClieNut Gadget Freak: Jun 11 2006, 10:50 AM |

Yes, they do have it but they don't have your OS. Futhermore it would be a little more trouble to download from website as you need to identify each and every component/model for your ThinkPad. Still the best way to go is make backup CDs from rescue&recover.There's another way though, contact IBM to purchase the disc for your specific model. They are selling it but i do not know the price |

If it can at least reduce the waiting time during bootup and shutdown of IBM ThinkPads, then the app should be worth it..." u have yahoo mail? mayb i can send the software to ur mail directly... sorry because i dunno how to upload to those easy-sharing website.. pm me ok? |

Hmmm, just like what thrust said, give IBM a call and tell them of your problem... Those guys should be able to assist you...

z60t user reporting here. Love its lightweight, for a price slightly higher than the r52 which is awfully heavy.
Nowadays the newer thinkpads (z series, t60, x60 onwards)from Lenovo has given us back the Windows key Thinkpads have sooo much crap preloaded with them... What I did was create a D: partition, copy everything from the folders IBMTOOLS and DRIVERS to D drive, reformat and reinstall windows XP, install the IBM Software installer, point to the stuff in the D drive and choose only the things that I want (Power manager, Access connections, Ultra Nav, and Active Protection System) |

Yeah, I think it works for all models of Thinkpads. Its a small software that allows you to install the default software/drivers that are meant for the Thinkpad, and also check for updates to the installed software/drivers.
It will check both your local hard disks for installation files, and also from the Internet. Quite a handy tool for any Thinkpad owner. |

T43 (at least MY T43), really got big problem in suck/dead pixel man.
I managed to kill some suck pixels (only one left now), but it's coming out like once in a month....and took me half an hour or so to fix it I don't know whether the rest of you are facing this problem. |

Stuck pixels can be in different colour (green, white, blue....), it's not yet dead and as williamngwl explained it is possible to recover it with 60% percentage.
Dead pixel usually black in colour (means the particular pixel will not be functioning anymore). And the percentage to recover it is 0% |

Has anyone here used the X41 tablet? I'm torn between purchasing a tablet PC or a laptop for college use. If I end up with a laptop, I've got my sights set firmly on the IBM Thinkpad X60. A wonderful little machine.

I am using X60s. Will cost you a whopping RM7000 though. I've increased my memory to 1Gig. Overall this machine is excellent. Able to gives you ~8hours battery life (power saving mode).
bare in mind though this machine comes with an external DVD COMBO unit and screenie has only 1024x768 reso. |

It's not the docking station. It's an external TEAC DVD/CDRW combo. I seldom use this drive though unless i need to install software from CDs. Unlike external floppy disk drive which can run via USB power, this DVD/CDRW unit needs a power source to run it.A word of advise, remember to create 1 set of recovery CDs. It's pre-installed within the HDD but it's better to make another backup via CDs for peace of mind in case your HDD goes kaput You'll roughly need about 7 CDs. |

no offence,why does ibm's lappy sells so well but the design is so dull?
i'm working in one of the Blue Chip's company and all of us uses ibm pc and lappy's.no doubt that the Thinkcenter and the X series is great,but the design of the lappy's totally sucks |

Thinkpads are meant to be business notebooks. They were made to look formal, not flashy, and their all-black design has become something of a classic among businesses. The fundamental looks of Thinkpads have not changed since the first model in 1991: simple and clean, nothing superfluous to detract from the 100%-business look. That, and their ruggedness make them highly popular as company computers. (Well, let's not forget the slew of security and productivity features the more recent models come with
)Frankly, I love the design of my R51, which has 'stealth fighter' angles when its closed, making it look sleeker and thinner than it really is. |

A Thinkpad's battery can go anywhere from Rm 800-900.Thats just a normal battery pad.)Frankly, I love the design of my R51, which has 'stealth fighter' angles when its closed, making it look sleeker and thinner than it really is. |

I also bought it during pc fair for 2990 for R60-A18 with 512MB RAM, then upgrade to 1GB RAM and Windows XP Home for additional RM500.The ThinkPad R60 is a pretty solid laptop, compare to T Series, it only lacks of alloy magnesium cover for LCD screen. with RM 3,500, I got 1. Intel Core Duo T2300E 2. 1GB RAM, DVD/CDRW combo 3. Intel PRO Wireless 3945ABG4 4. Alloy magnesium roll cage to protect your internal MB. 5. 14" LCD 6. 6 cells battery that able to last for min 5 hours 7. Hard disk active protection to prevent sudden drop causing data lost. 8. Trusted Platform Module (TPM) security chip to encrypt your files 9. Anti-spill water keyboard 10. Tons of very useful ThinkVantage tools help you increase your productivity. Overall, this is the best laptop I've ever used, my previous laptops were HP compaq series, it was a terrible experience, problem such as overheat, short batter life (~ 1 hour), noisy fan, unable to wake up after switch to sleep mode. Thinkpad has a very impressive battery power management, under normal use such as typing, surfing net, the battery easily last up to 5 hours, and it is not hot at all, only minor warm you would feel at the back. hard disk is also very quiet, I can't even notice it is running. typing the thinkpad keyboard is a pleasure, the best keyboard I've ever used, and not to mention the thinkvantage tools such as 1. access connections that let you manage multiple location profile so that you don't need to manual change your ip, gateway, netmask, dns when you move around different office. 2. Power management lets you configure your battery charging threshold that can prolong your battery life. 3. Easyeject lets you quick eject and USB devices within you three key strokes. System update automatically notice you that the new driver or patch is available to you. 4. Rescue & Recovery automatically backup your data to your network folder or usb drives, and it can start and recover your system even your windows is totally crash and not able to boot up without using any recovery CD. 5. Presentation director lets you quickly switch your screen output to any external screen device without guessing which mode you are current in. |

I bought my Kingston PC2 5300 and i dont think its IBM certified. Nevertheless i assume its the same as the original RAM stick was running on Elpida chipsets and same goes for the Kingston. Bought 512MB for only RM190. My laptop is running on dual channel now so i believe those RAMs are identical.

QUOTE(jonchye @ Sep 25 2006, 08:18 PM) Mayb still safer to remove gua. yeah it's always safer to do so, but i encounter 1 problem is, my steepstep doesnt run after i take the battery out, it looks like a common problem by the new thinkpad anyway i'm prefering taking it out, i'm a scare die person here's a guide for taking care batteries http://batteryuniversity.com/parttwo.htm to summarize it, QUOTE Simple Guidelines * Avoid frequent full discharges because this puts additional strain on the battery. Several partial discharges with frequent recharges are better for lithium-ion than one deep one. Recharging a partially charged lithium-ion does not cause harm because there is no memory. (In this respect, lithium-ion differs from nickel-based batteries.) Short battery life in a laptop is mainly cause by heat rather than charge / discharge patterns. * Batteries with fuel gauge (laptops) should be calibrated by applying a deliberate full discharge once every 30 charges. Running the pack down in the equipment does this. If ignored, the fuel gauge will become increasingly less accurate and in some cases cut off the device prematurely. * Keep the lithium-ion battery cool. Avoid a hot car. For prolonged storage, keep the battery at a 40% charge level. * Consider removing the battery from a laptop when running on fixed power. (Some laptop manufacturers are concerned about dust and moisture accumulating inside the battery casing.) * Avoid purchasing spare lithium-ion batteries for later use. Observe manufacturing dates. Do not buy old stock, even if sold at clearance prices. * If you have a spare lithium-ion battery, use one to the fullest and keep the other cool by placing it in the refrigerator. Do not freeze the battery. For best results, store the battery at 40% state-of-charge. This post has been edited by wtm0325: Sep 26 2006, 12:01 AM |

R series is cheaper, thicker and built entirely of plastic (good ABS plastic, mind you!). The T series is thinner, lighter (14" T60 is 2.4 kg while 14" R60 is 2.6kg), has an alloy lid and is much more expensive. T series models tend to have higher spec as well.
Both series come with the roll cage, have identically fantastic keyboards and the active protection system. |
