Trying to come back to a Lenovo

#1 Post by vilasman » Thu Mar 17, 2011 3:44 pm

I had a T60 and somebody borrowed it. A year ago. To bad it had a bad battery, they didn't get the power cord and the palm rest was cracked. It was also having boot problems.
Now I have a Hp g72 17" and I just revived a dell inspiron 1520 by installing linux mint on it.
I can't get the hp from my wife because the dell wont run windows.
I like the big screen.
Is there a Lenovo from around the same time as the T60, with the same case as the T60 with the keyboard light and the finger print reader but with a 17" screen?
I would miss the HDMI out of the Hp but I would make it.

the only 17" thinkpads i know of are the w7xx series. they look like big honkin' beasts! desktop workstation replacements, i guess.

I was afraid that the W7 series were the only older 17" notebooks. I will have to start saving. I love the big black plain looking beast,
