New Thinkpads Soon?

#1 Post by phaxmohdem » Wed Sep 16, 2009 2:15 am

Does anyone know if there will be a refresh coming to the Thinkpad line up soon? I've been eyeballing the T400's for some time, and I think this spring, with some of my student loan money, I may throw down for an upgrade to my trusty T40p I'm using now.

My spec wish-list for the upgrade is as follows:
Quad Core i5/i7 CPU (or fast dual core if these aren't released)
4-8GB RAM
Radeon 5470/5670 class GPU
SSD or roomy 7200rpm
14" display with WSXGA+ would be nice (I've noticed they don't offer this for some reason)
oh, and like 12 ThinkLights ;)
x30:: PIII 1.2GHz / 512MB PC133 / 160GB 5400 RPM / 12.1" XGA / Intel Integrated GFX / Intel 2200BG WiFi
x60:: C2D 1.87GHz / 3GB DDR2-667 / 120GB SSD / 12.1" XGA / Intel Integrated GFX / Intel 3945ABG WiFi

You better start thinking about taking out a mortgage. Student loans won't cover your wish list... :?
