wireless & bluetooth hardware question

Hi.

Is the wireless & bluetooth connectivity in Thinkpads removable like a card or is it installed on the motherboard? Or does this differ amongst Thinkpads?

Thanks.

Wireless & bluetooth are expansion cards on most ThinkPads. There are a variety of connections and locations, but most can be removed or just disable if you are not going to use them. What model are you interested in?

I was thinking about a T41. I heard that the T's were good. My computers stay stationary so I don't really need wireless. Plus I'll probably take other cards out too or disable them - so that the memory is not limited. Which ThinkPad would you suggest - in terms of old ThinkPads?
