T60 WS Weight = 5.8 lbs w/ 6 Cell + 3 Cell Ultrabay

#1 Post by ThinkTay » Sun Mar 11, 2007 1:37 am

I am not sure if this is actually in the forum anywhere, as I can only find "Lenovo" numbers when I search. So for anyone interested, my laptop weighs exactly 5.8 lbs with the 6cell battery and an ultrabay 3 cell (which weighs the same as the optical, within a tenth of a lb)

Does Lenovo sell dummy ultrabay drives to decrease the weight of the T60?

About 0.35 lbs, I think. I have one and it makes a noticeable difference.

What are "memory sticks?" You mean two sticks of DDR? I have two (1 GB and 512 MB) and my T60 14" weighs exactly 5 lb with 6 cell, integrated video, 60 GB 5400 HD and DVDR/CDRW drive.

Right, two sticks of DDR2. I am jealous that your T60 weighs so much less than mine! What's the product number? Mine is 2623-D4U.
