Despite its name (Z61T), this is just another version of the T60, with the same ~3gb RAM limitation.
So buyer beware!

So what? It's still a very nice laptop at a very decent price. I use a Z series every day and it's the best ThinkPad I've owned.

@Pizza: I don't think RealBlackStuff was saying that it's a bad deal. He wanted to let everyone know about the hardware limitation of RAM. I would have certainly thought that it would be able to support >3GB RAM since it is a Z6"1" to later find out that I can't upgrade.

It is a good deal and a nice machine, but it is a feature that buyer should know in case they plan upgrade the RAM in future.
