What was the last T series made that had a 4:3 monitor?

#1 Post by ThinkpadAddict » Sun Jul 03, 2011 1:55 pm

I don't care much about speed but am looking for something a little newer than my T60. I hate wide screen! I just sold a ThinkPad T420s laptop, screen very bright, even a little too bright, but very good quality. The problem is that it was the newer wide screen 16x9 14" and it was just too narrow from top to bottom. Thanks for your help.

That would be the T61.

T61 was made in 14.1" 4:3 form factor, but it's somewhat rare.

T60 was the last model made in both 14.1" and 15" 4:3 form factors.

And R61 (even though it's not a T series) was the last model made in 15" 4:3 form factor, believe it or not! :D

I have been wondering about one thing for a while: What was the fastest 4:3 laptop? Was it the T61? After Lenovo discontinued all their 4:3 Thinkpads, Dell, Panasonic and one or two other brands continued to sell 4:3 laptops for a short while but they weren't necessarily faster than the T61.

Well...I'd imagine that Panasonic CF-31 is faster than a T61/p in any guise, although I've never ran them side-by-side...and it's still a 4:3 unit...
