Does anyone have the elusive G50?
Never seen one, but for who has it, is it a cool machine like the other G-series? How does it compare to a R60/T60?
The only acceptable use for a MacBook is to shop for a Thinkpad.

Sorry if I was unclear, I meant the IBM(Lenovo?) Thinkpad G50, successor to the Thinkpad G41.RealBlackStuff wrote:IBM G50: a CRT monitor from the past: https://www.cnet.com/products/ibm-g50-c ... ies/specs/

My understanding is that it sports what is essentially an Intel-based T60 board with a G4x power circuit (!!!!!) and an XGA panel. Sold only in the Far East, and for a very limited period of time.
