I've got a Lenovo R61e Thinkpad and I love it. I've only owned Sony laptops in the past but I always wanted a Thinkpad so I decided to make the change. There are only two small things I don't like about it; the keyboard flex and the slight flex of the palmrest. Is there any way to really tighten down the keyboard?

Good quick look at the computer's durability. I have an extremely detailed unboxing, review and comparison of the w510 for the more serious buyers. Thinkpad laptops all take on the general same shape/form, so look here to really understand all of the Thinkpad line of notebooks. From heating system to multi touch features, it is on my channel, here:

Just letting you guys know there is finally a super-detailed review of the Lenovo workstation series w510 laptops.

wow...how much kilos?

I have the newer ThinkPad Edge 14. It seems to live up to its name.

[BluerimTech]

Funny. A ThinkPad works after you've sat, stood, stomped, and even rolled your car over it once or twice, yet a MacBook of about the same power for $200-$500 more will break if you trip on it.

@BluerimTech Are you kidding? Any thing from apple will break if you even poke it!

[MrSameh83]

I have this same model here in this video (T61). It's great and i even sat on it accidentally once. They are made out of steel !

[mythicalness]

just in case bigfoot comes and uses your laptop with his heavy fingers, you'll know he won't break it

[DerGoldenePhilipp]

very cool :P

[AwesomeMcTasty]

This is exactly why I still use my 11 year old ThinkPad... the thing looks like it's brand new, even though I've dropped it and even tripped and stepped on it once!

[Stere0123]

@AwesomeMcTasty same. i'm typing this on my IBM thinkpad r40 :P

[ongchorcool]

@AwesomeMcTasty wow!

[bogeyatyour6]

@AwesomeMcTasty Lol I also use an 11 Year old Thinkpad now :D

I Have the T20, you?

[AwesomeMcTasty]

@bogeyatyour6

Good ol' 600 from 1998. Too slow (Pentium II) to be useful for much, but it can still browse the internet and play music!

[bogeyatyour6]

@AwesomeMcTasty Nice :D

I also have an 600E , but I gave it to my brother.

I´m looking forward to buy a T60 =)

@bogeyatyour6

Lenovo does not sell T60s anymore, unless you want a second hand PC.

I personally used to have a T60, and it always crashes.

[bogeyatyour6]

@lenovox201t I know that ;) I cannot afford a T410s or something.

Mine doesn´t crash. (got it by now)

Maybe you had just a defective model?

[xlaleclx]

@AwesomeMcTasty It looks brand new because they haven't changed the look of them at all :P

[AwesomeMcTasty]

@xlaleclx

True, but it's also got no broken plastic, all the keys work, and the monitor is still quite bright.

I've also got a much newer Dell that's missing one key, has two that will fall off if I press them, and is only still in one piece because I epoxied the monitor together and re-threaded the monitor hinge and put in a bolt twice the size... and that's after ~3 years of similar treatment.

And when it comes to looks... why fix it if it ain't broke?

[yourholyman]

??? It's bad because you did not break it.
