I Love My T43, But Shoule I Get A T60P?
I Love My T43, But Shoule I Get A T60P?
I love my T43. I just upgraded to Vista Ultimate after waiting a while. Eventually I got bored and figured I'd put it in both machines.
Anyhow, it's a 2687-DTU with the 15" screen and it has everything I need and I got it for 700.00.
I am always wanting the newest and greatest but how can I justify getting a T60?
One reason is the Widescreen.. I love it. I had it on my older Powerbook and it was great. Is the widescreen T60 shorter and wider than my T43 15".
I wish my T43 was a little thinner but the 15" adds the bulk. Basically I want to size mine up with a T60 Widescreen but there is nowhere to go and look at them.
Can anyone offer some advice?

Probably not a need to upgrade.
I have a T42 and my dad has a T60... there are a few nice features with the T60, but I don't think it's worth upgrading, just for the sake of upgrading!
I can understand your dilemma, though.
I've noticed that with IBM's, laptops age gracefully, unlike cheaper brands lol..
