Reviews Chapter

#1 Post by rleo25 » Sat Oct 28, 2006 11:54 am

I suggest to open a new conference or chapter devoted only to gather and post reviews, the conference should be subdivided in Vintage, and the current series, R,T,X, and Z.

no reviews of legacy machines on that site; only the
570 and 600x are listed, and no reviews come up for either one
the way up and the way down are the same (heraclitus)

True, but many if not most modern Thinkpads are covered. I have seen many Japanese web sites that review legacy Thinkpads, though one would need Babelfish to translate them into English.

I like this idea, a lot.

1. As mentioned, it allows for reviews of legacy machines.
2. I will allow more than one opinion. NBR.com has one article per machine.
3. NBR is often incomplete, especially on newer machines. I was looking for a review of the Z61p, and it just redirected me to the Z61m.
4. It would give everyone a chance to share their experiences with and opinions of their computers.

perhaps not a new confrence, but a page on my thinkpads.com site..!

unless you want comments to appear with each review..
