Pseudo-review of my T61

#1 Post by mattkrass » Thu Aug 16, 2007 12:34 am

I wrote about my T61 experiences and first impressions on my blog and thought it might be of interest to the people around here:

That isn't toilet paper, it's paper towel, my friend and I were debadging it with careful application of Goo-Gone.

Thanks for the comments, anyone got a question? Feel free to post it on the blog comment page as well if you'd like :)

Is this a CTO model or a pre-configured one? If preconfigured, what's the entire model #?

Is that the default wallpaper now? I didn't see that image on my 4:3 T60 w/ WinXP...I wonder, is this a widescreen thing, a T61 thing, or a Vista thing?

None of those things.

All newer *60 / *61 series are being shipped with these new lenovo wallpapers.
"I've come a long, long way," she said, "and I will go as far,
With the man who takes me from my horse, and leads me to a bar."
The man who took her off her steed, and stood her to a beer,
Were a bleary-eyed Surveyor and a DRUNKEN ENGINEER.

It's a CTO (specifically 7662-CTO), there's a more detailed list of specs here:
http://www.themattcave.org/comps.shtml

The wallpaper was one of the choices during my Vista first boot, it didn't last long, I replaced it with one my friend made me :)

If you'd like I can put the wallpapers up on my site in a RAR file, assuming that doesn't break any copyright laws or other infringements on Lenovo's IP.
