Size of T61 versus T400

[Alfisti]

Sorry if this has been discussed but i find the search here really hard to use.

I am in the market for a refurb, I have the T400 already, the prices for T61' are very appealing, is a 14 inch T61 any larger/heavier than the T400?

The T61/T400 are exactly the same physical dimensions. T61 is a little heavier.

That is true, plus you can swap main batteries between the models. I was (happily) surpised that the T400 model was noticeably lighter.

Outstanding, thanks. I can also use the same dock too so this is good news.
