Asr Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 Most of those issues you had with the T61 sound like personal preference. As to the hardware problem, was there any problem getting it resolved? Personal preference maybe, but the 1400x1050 resolution is downright visually distorted, an Ethernet jack on the left side is going to inconvenience maybe at least 50% of users, and the touchpad area is unnecessarily reduced by the double sets of buttons: As for the hardware problem, all it took was an in-warranty repair on Lenovo's part for a new HDD and BIOS refresh, came back as good as it should have in the first place. Wasn't customer-inflicted at all either, the laptop simply started going bad slowly over the first two months with lock-ups, blue-screens, and finally boot failure. Was the weirdest thing, glad it has no issues now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grawk Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 Unnecessary unless you use the trackpoint. And obviously, an ethernet jack on one side or the other will bother the people that wanted it on the other. As to visually distorted, I'm not sure how. Just don't stretch images and there are no problems. Hardware issues aren't weird. They happen. If they tested everythign that went out, the prices would be WAY higher.

Iron_Dreamer Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 'thanks for the message Grawk! At this point I'm hoping that the lappy I have arriving tomorrow will do the trick, but if not, it's Lenovo here I come. I'd go with the T400, but the way I'd deck it out, would end up being $1400+. When I can get a suitable, if not quite so wet-dream-worthy T61 for <$900, it's just a better investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fungi Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 You're not adding on RAM through Lenovo right? That's still a rather good deal for what it is. That 1.4k price includes the LED backlight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron_Dreamer Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Yeah, the DDR3 premium is rough there. I don't disagree that it's a good price, it's just more than I'd rather spend right now. Marginal returns to the T400 over the T61 don't keep pace with the the price increase, at least for my uses, at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
