The Corporate Choice Nov 17, 2008
My company has been a Thinkpad shop since the late 20th Century, when IBM used to make them and, me working there, I've been blessed with a succession of T- models with the T60 being my current appliance.
I will not go into the specs because they are all listed here and, I'm sure, everything is true. From a user point of view, I find the T-series quite adequate for corporate or business-related activities. Its looks are professional, 'mid-management', not expected to be seen with a true techie or salesperson. It would be unlikely for someone buying one of these for home use but, if one finds this product compelling for a home business, it is likely to serve its purpose well.
Based on my nearly 10 years experience with Thinkpads, I will testify that they tend to be well-built, reliable products, likely to withstand 2-3 years of daily use quite well. I remember that the T-40 I had before my current T-60, after 3 years had its black paint peeling off but it was still working.
To summarize:
+ Reliable - I recall of only one major incident in 10 years of Thinkpad heavy use.
+ Relatively good keyboard - I use mine mostly on a docking station but the laptop's own keyboard serves me well when I need it.
+ The red index-finger-operated knob used to move the pointer and which was first used by IBM on a laptop is the perfect interface for me. It's probably the best way to move a pointer on the screen when your fingers are on the keyboard.
+ Excellent I/O capabilities.
+ Integrates will with Thinkpad's own docking station.
+ Memory is easy to expand.
+ Easy to service due to well-thought, modular design.
+ Solid, shock-resistant, titanium build.
- Dull, all-black, titanium looks.
- The standard battery won't give you a lot of play time. Maybe 9 minutes on day one and it then degrades quickly to about one hour. You will need the 'extended life' battery if you need 2-3 hours of unplugged run.
- Tends to get quite hot. If you are using this while in bed, which I do given the 24/7 nature of my job you better place a pillow on your lap or you are going to feel very uncomfortable.
- Some keyboard or rather 'text input' issues. I noticed both on W2K and Vista and both with the laptop's keyboard and an external keyboard that, sometimes, when one types fast, which I do, the cursor jumps on its own to another line. This is annoying.
- Many proprietary and usually expensive expansions: the power adapter, the docking station, the extra-life battery - they could set you back quite a few dollars.
