6th LED from left if you've got WWAN...

I second that. Just buy it... I'm one of the one's who couldn't wait and bought my T60p in Feb. and paid $2999 for it (you forgot the $150 rebate, too)...and I've got no regrets (except maybe that I did NOT reinstall XP). :D I will say, however, that they coulda waited another couple of months befor...

HOW DO YOU ALL KNOW THE BATTERY BRAND?? i'm thinking to buy the 2623 DDU and i'll appreciate if some of you all tell me the brand of batt for that model!! thank's Use Power Manager, Battery Information (tab) and look under the Battery details... I've got the express 15" T60p (2623DDU) and it comes ...

Well, I just switched over to IBM after years of being a Dell user. I've not used the new platform that Dell just released but it doesn't matter...I'm not buying it. I had an M60 for a year and a half and then an M70 for a year. There is no way that Dell makes anything as nice as the T60p I'm typing...

3DMark: 1502
SM2: 538
HDR/SM3: 545
CPU: 1579

Darrenf, what'd you use to overclock your GPU?

I don't have this option in my user accounts settings.

Are you guys on win domains? ...or workgroups?

I just don't see it anywhere...

I had seen several threads recently on the "squeeky palmrest" and had given this some thought after reading through those...because I've never heard a squeek outta mine.

My T60p creaks. But it creaks less than any other lappy I've ever had...

Dells are the Creakiest!

My Linksys Wireless Cable Gateway (WCG-200) works great!

BTW: There have been like a million posts on this topic...

Yes to the BIOS upgrade, dude. 1.04 came out and I upgraded immediately with no issues.

Not sure why that didn't show up on the System update...but I have a tendancy to do things manually anyway...

For anyone who hasn't tried this or has a T60 on the way, you GOTTA get the 6 cell (and don't wait a month like I did). This thing is like a whole new lappy w/ the 6 cell! Much more balanced, lighter and easier to hold...I much prefer the 6 cell so it was worth the ~$150!

I'm here to tell you... If you like SXGA+ on 14" you will love UXGA on 15". I now know what I didn't like about my high res dells. The widescreens. With the height you get on 4:3, even 1600x1200 is very readable on this 15" IPS. Then you start adjusting font styles (use cleartype) and font dpi to ma...

FYI the NMB's haven't been available but the Alps have been shipping.

I have an ALPS and it absolutely rocks. Get the NMB if you can, but the Alps won't dissapoint if that's all you can get.

Nero Ultimate and you can't go wrong.

I've been on the Verizon EVDO service for almost a month now and it's been just fine. Both Verizon and Sprint (PC Card) services are nice in this area but the external card does win out on burst and even signal strength. Now, not to hijack the thread, but I'm running Acad '04 on my T60p and man it's...

Can anyone suggest a wireless router that can stay up for months without reboot? My Linksys WCG200 at home stays up for months no problem. But the Cisco Aironet 1240 at the office is designed to always stay up...with constant use. Really the Cisco is way too expensive for just about any home use th...

No go, dude. Email was returned!

You sure about that address???

Man that's a cool sleeve/case/glove thing...why can't they be bought? I've been look at my Razr and my iPod (both of which are black and have cool glove-fit sleeves and wondering, "Is there such a thing for a lappy?" I would love a plush leather (T60p deserves it) glovelikefit "case" "sleeve" thingy...

Yeah, it's the 15" model. I think the screen makes up half the weight of the thinkpad. That's a very good observation. It was one of the first things that I noticed about mine...and it's the exact opposite of any other lappy I've ever used. Usually, the LCD assembly/housing/hinges/screen/etc kinda ...

jeremivw, Now you got me confused. Which network card do I want? Intel or Atheros? I believe tech support gave me the option of having a new network card sent to me and replacing it myself or by one of their local service centers. If you think the card I have (I can check when I get home) is the pr...

This new Intel card is SOLID. Great read. Thanks. I am hoping that you are saying that the T60 comes with the INTEL card and normally it is rock-solid. That gives me hope that the replacement will be fine. Otherwise, all I am going to get is another T60 with the same issues. No, I meant the Atheros...

ah, thanks, so is there a company that most people are ordering there memory from? cosair? etc? From what I've seen, yes. I did...and it was corsair. It was broadcast early on in the T60 release that any CTO (even adding a stick of ram) would add weeks to your delivery time. So most (I think) chose...

so then is 2g the max config I could have on this computer unless I swapped out the first slot with a larger stick? Well, not really. You could leave the 1gb stick in and then add a 2gb stick for a total of 3gb but that would cost you about $1400 just for the 2gb stick. To get the max of 4gb (still...

Hello, I have t60p with 1 g memory but would like to upgrade. First, how many slots are there available and what are my options. Is the1 gig standard 2 512's in 2 slots or 1 g memory in 1 slot? Also I have heard that i can actually load 4 g of memory. How is this possible if 3g is the max on the t6...

oh right...those sata drives are more expensive too :( and I think there are no 160gb sata drives out yet. An extra internal 160 gb would have been just what I need. (edit) on a second though, do they even fit into the ultra bay adaptor? I assume it's for the standard 9 mm height drives only? Yeah ...

On its way, bro...

Ronbo that really stinks, man. I'm sorry you're having so much trouble... After all these wifi issues I've read of here, I took some liberty yesterday at work to see if I could duplicate any issues...I could not. I've tested fairly extensively now on several devices using a combination of large file...

Ah I see.... I have to put a SATA harddisk in the Ultra bay, but it will be connected to a regular IDE controller, did I get that right? Thanks for the info - certainly good to know. My intention is to use the second harddrive mostly for storage. Fortunately speed isn't much of importance to me for...

But even today, given a choice between a high-end LCD display and a high-end CRT display, I'll still gladly take the CRT. The colour rendition is usually superior on the CRT. I certainly agree...but... This IPS I'm lookin' at bridges that gap (CRT > LCD) better than any portable I've seen to date...

May I be the featherless jerk that speaks, please? Thanks... I've just re-read those rules out of respect for this forum. I must say, it seems so obvious... Is there an issue with cursing or mis-use somewhere? In otherwords, are you admin/mod types having issues with this? If so, would you mind post...

OK, let me see if this is what might be going on. May be the LCD screen (when the graphics are on 32-bit mode) doesn't do millions of colours, but still more than my eye can discern; something which it can't pull-off in 16-bit? Because that's why I haven't once worked in 16-bit in years; the instan...
