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)

Ah, I eliminated one stuck pixel and one still there...guess I'll just leave it there lar, I don't own the laptop also.

Btw, the keyboard really rocks....Really smooth typing and can control pointer well even without mouse.

And another thing, despite being aquired by Lenevo, it doesn't change the branding rite? Coz supposed im getting Lenevo laptop but now it's still IBM thinkpad

Tried that countless time already, i had two and one was gone

The other one still there no matter what Btw, it's not quite obvious so I'm fine with it.

Thanks a lot for your suggestion.

Edit: it's green in colour.

Business users need good portability to travel with it around, long term reliability, and comofortablity in doing presentation and applications like excel.

By the way, while agreeing that IBM lappies are good, I've to say they are ugly too

I am using T43 but it's my company laptop so those CDs are not with me.

I think most of the stuff are available in the website except your copy of OEM Windows Xp

I am using T43, why?

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.

Just apply some pressure with it if it is stuck pixels. (not 100% success rate)

If dead pixels, then say bye bye...

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%

wah virushiOyo your company so good.

Actually my T43 is company property also...but i don't think I can get the upgrade to dual core so soon
