T42 Cases

I am going to be getting a T42 with a 14' screen and I was wondering if anyone has had any first hand encounters with very slim cases. I am looking for something I can just slip my T42 in and out of without a hassle, like if i was on my laptop in a restaurant and needed to go to the bathroom and wou...

Gaming performance on T42s

I am looking to a 2373-3UU model that has a 1.7 735 Processor and a ATI MOBILITY RADEON 9600 graphics card. I play Unreal Tournament 2004 and Warcraft 3 a lot. Would this handle these games well? Does anyone have any first hand experience playing games that demand a descent amount of power to run sm...

Would I still get the 3 year warranty with the 2373-3UU? Is it just a document that comes with the laptop that has some reference number that i give to IBM in the event that anything does happen?

I am going to go with the 2373-3UU and the $2200 price from Bill sounds very nice. But one issue I have is the credibility of ordering it from Bill. From all the threads I have heard nothing but good things about Bill, and there seems to be a lot of people that order from him, but how can he offer t...

I've singled my choices down to the 2373-3UU and the 2378-FVU. The only this is that they seem to be essentially the same, except that the 2373-3UU has more software that comes with it (whatever) and that it offers a 3-year warrenty instead of a 1 year like the 2378-FVU and a difference of 256 in RA...

The 23733UU model seems to be better fitted towards what I was looking for. The major differences between that one and the 23733VU seems to be the multi-burner, which i dont need, and the 80 gig, which I can settle for a 40 gig. It doesnt list the processor speed, but I assume that it is a 735 1.7. ...

I tried looking at the 23733VU specs at IBM's site, but it said it couldnt find it. What price is that model going for?

Hrm, the 2378FVU model is very similar. Performance-wise, would jumping to a 735 1.7 from a 745 1.8 be a big step? And when I looked up that model it said that it did have the ATI MOBILITY RADEON 9600 with 64megs of RAM. Is that a mistake? Also I do NOt want a FlexView display, since it seems to add...

Finding out prices on a T42 configuration

I have tried IBM's site to configure, but its interface doesn't seem to be consistent with what can actually be configred, as described in the tabook. So this is the configuration I was looking for: PentiumM 745 1.8 ghz 512GB 14.1" SXGA (the site won't let me select a 14" screen, only 15") 64MB ATI ...
