need a capable i7 A capable Core i7? Do you mean a quad-core Core i7, or a hexa-core Core i7? . . . You can't have a laptop that is very fast and very light at the same time, so you would have to make some compromises. Are any newer models of the X1 or T470s or higher upgradable, or will I have to ...

I have bought Lenovo batteries on Amazon for about $75 - $80. I bought two aftermarket batteries, that I returned. The Lenovo batteries are still going strong.

I have some X220's, a T420, a T420s (daily driver now), a couple of W520's and now find I need a faster more capable laptop for my work. I see some comments about not upgradable and poor QC on newer ThinkPads. I am looking for fast, light and powerful so need a capable i7, 16GB ram, the usual ports,...

Well, in spite of Trump, Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, and Russia are also doing a better job of sowing chaos than the US. Right sure. The US is trying to bring democracy to the Middle East, right? I haven't heard of anyone who thinks "The US is trying to bring democracy to the Middle East...". Back t...

Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Russia and others are doing a much better job of chaos creation in the MIddle East; which in turn, is helping to drive refugees into the EU and eslewhere. A better job too then the United States? Well, in spite of Trump, Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, and Russia are also doin...

No one here has mentioned doing that to a sitting Government.

That's good news. I thought I saw reference to a civil war. But if we're talking about repelling the Russians, or some other enemy of the state, I am all for it.

Millions of firearm owner have massive stores of ammunition as well as arms. Many at least as good, and many times much better than any small arms the military uses. I am one of those. The American firearms owner need not be supplied by a third party or outside force as in proxy wars to the indigen...

He must have eaten Mexican food that day.

One more relevant item. I am using Windows 7. I always run with all power saving turned off since I am almost never running on battery.

Sorry, it took me a while. I usually run the laptop with DISCRETE because the eye tracking analysis software I use requires high video capability. Some times, I will use INTEGRATED, if I don't have that need, and maybe on battery. Here are the drivers I have installed, only one shows up, depending o...

It will take me a while to check the driver version and whether I have both Intel and nvidia installed. I suspect you need both. I haven't booted it in a while so it will go through some updates.

Some of the W520 batteries were recalled. You might find the battery check program at lenovo.com, although the recall is over, it's worth checking. If you cannot find the recall battery check program, you can pm me and I may be able to find it and send it to you. Another thing to check, is your batt...

[snip]How should I fix this? [/snip]

By not doing it in the first place perhaps?

Well, I shoulda hada burger for lunch instead.

As I was reading and scrolling through these posts, I started laughing and accidentally got a smear of yogurt and a few tiny pieces of granola in the scroll wheel of my mouse. How should I fix this? It is a Microsoft Mouse Model# 3500. The yogurt was organic, as was the granola...

According to this , the pronunciation of β was changed from sounding like an English 'B' in Ancient Greek to sounding like English 'V' in Modern Greek. Thus we established that there is at least one historical process which is unrelated to the Western civilization's gallop towards suicide. Good to ...

Ahem...that very island of Lesbos has its name in the root of the word "lesbian"...so I guess something has changed for reasons unknown. Linguistics aside, the story just shows - once and again - that the Western civilization is hellbent on committing suicide.... :roll: It appears that many of the ...

As a collectible, the ONE I would want (and I still would love to have) is a ThinkPad 500 which was my first ThinkPad. It was also, I believe, the first ThinkPad "notebook" meaning it was small.

There's one on eBay right now

Arggghhh! Don't tempt me!

Also notice the island's name: Lesvos with a v . Not too long ago, and for centuries, if not millennia, it was called: Lesbos with a b . But I guess that was "too insulting to women..." Apparently beta ("b" in English) is pronunced with the English sound of "v" so however you spell it in non-Greek ...

Wow! Using the listed price since I don't have the original configurations, I must have spent over $18,000 on new ThinkPads back in the old days. All were paid list price by my employer, who couldn't understand my fascination with these ThinkPads, but, since I had my own budget, I had the freedom to...

pm sent

That made my day, thanks!

I have a W520 I am thinking of putting up for sale, let me know if interested and I will send details. Can sell with / without 24GB ram, two internal Crucial SSDs (512GB 2.5" and 250GB mSata) and dock, etc. I have an nVidia 1000M and a 2000M.

I am looking for an OEM disk set for the W520 Win 7 Pro 64 bit. Will pay for copies/shipping if you can copy your original set.
Thanks,
Mike

Thanks, battery condition?

Can you provide the machine type and model (format: ABCD-XYZ).
Thanks
