Lenovo ThinkPad R61 亞洲車神機車碾過版 motorbike ride over in Taiwan

[teacher0088]

Lenovo thinkpads nowadays made with cheap parts and faulty batteries. Even the case are poorly designed with weak points.  Its just not the same thing anymore.

[n0y0x]

thinkpads are amazing, but I really wonder if they specially reinforced this one :). I know I would if i were giving a press conference like that.

[bixon100]

my thinkpad r61 rocks i use it like 15 hours per day working and i doesnt even gets slower haha

[hk96006345]

What a lousy propaganda! Today's thinkpad is made in china and the quality is cheaper than dell.

[hurensohnsBruda]

what u talk about, i own the t61 and the quality is still superb!

china doesnt mean poor quality nowdays , most electronic products come from china.

sony, lg, samsung, toshiba etc. they all have plants there with own high technology production lines.

i am sure u never had a thinkpad in your hands in life, cotherwise u wouldnt talk like that.

nuff said

[n0y0x]

Dude.... your dell comes from china too. This is hardly propaganda, its marketing, and every company does marketing. China is starting to lead the world in innovation nowadays.

@hk96006345

You've obviously never used a Lenovo Thinkpad...I've been a long-term Thinkpad fan, and my x200 is better-built than my flexy T42 made by IBM. It is as good as my 600x in terms of build quality, which is saying a lot.

It's ironic that you mention propaganda, because it's anti-China propaganda that makes people believe that everything out of China is crap. This cannot be further from the truth.

[starhiter]

my computer is thinkpad sl400 ,nowhere to buy r61 now

[akonaito1]

between balance of durability and reliability. I would sacrifice the ergonomic design if I will have a very reliable machine. ThinkPad rocks! so are it's users who think a lot

[wanker888]

i love my R61 thinkpad even though it is a big too heavy~~~

[kaiwaig]

I'm not hearing the girls complain though ;)

[celestyn84]

my t61 is perfect ! i love him !! :D

[myzzdeedee]

omg.. that's crazy.. if that was my laptop i would kill that bastard with the motorbike... cool performance though

[FiRese7eN]

Just got a new R61 and it's rock solid. Huge difference in feeling compared to my previous acer. A laptop doesn't need to be easy on the eyes, it needs to be functional, easy to use and solid. If you want eye candy instead of durability, go buy an overpriced vaio.

[Useraly]

I won't invest my to asian ecomnic because they're 4 billins over. They are wasting out planet

[myzzdeedee]

uhm.. what's that have anything to do with the laptop?.. if you're such a racist why don't you post this comment somewhere else

[wanker888]

u made this smartass comment because your race does not or cant afford to produce such excellent laptops,

[mluu510]

i just bought an r61. i can't wait to get mine!

[jsc77810]

those reporters... damn sucks... one even said that is it only a stamp that glued on the screen...

[chenfeiyy]

Black is nice.

Black jacket, black BMW, black shirt, dark sun glasses....

When has 'men in white' becomes the trend?

[dadoody]

I LOVE the ThinkPad T series.

Durable and rugged. I also like that my screen doesn't wobble and my keyboard doesn't feel like it's about to break at any moment.

Rock solid.

I also LIKE the way it looks. It doesn't have some kinda UFO/ultra futuristic design, it has a very nice conservative black box design. I like it black.

[reatard132]

@dadoody yep, i'm on a old school T42, best laptop i have ever had!!!! and very durable! (except the keyboard... i am on my second one, 2 of the keys poped off on the old one then the membrain stoped working, got to love spare parts!) useing a docking station and everything!

[some1x]

I love Thinkpad X- and T-series' no-nonsense and sleek styling. However, Thinkpad R-series is a bit bulky.

Sony notebooks, except the Vaio C and Vaio N, are also also quite nicely designed.

Alienware and Dell are just garish.

[tenz1225]

I have an Thinkpad X22 for 5+ years. It still works fine and never get me any trouble except hardisk drive..

[ken6168]

Nothing can please ALL. Durability and Stability is still the reason why I chose ThinkPad.

[DrJellyfish]

Perhaps some of the Thinkpad fanboys won't agree with me, but if the Thinkpad's appearance was even half as good as it's performance (or motor-bike proof-ness) then perhaps they'd be onto something. I mean come on, don't tell me the IBM/Lenovo executives haven't heard of balancing form and function? Nevermind, they obviously have heard of balancing a 'light hobbit-rode motorbike' on one of there notebooks.

[DrJellyfish]

Come on... lets be honest, most people (who don't work for IBM or Lenovo) tend to agree that the Think pad is an angular outdated-looking monstrosity; it's not its performance or motor bike proof endurance (I can see that being a priority in the office) that I'm questioning, nor am I suggesting they take Sony's approach, just rather they make it a little easier on the eye.

[zhenjiezhang]

but sony's product looks really cheap...it is like comparing plastic to metal: plastic may be fansy, but metal is noble.

[nxman77]

Lenovo-IBM Thinkpads are the best notebooks money can buy, And yes they are ugly :)

[DrJellyfish]

Hmm... instead of wasting money doing J$ck$ss stunts that don't impress anyone, money could be well spent improving the design of the ugliest notebook on the market. Then again to tell you the truth if my notbook was as ugly as a thinkpad - then I'd probably want to bash it and smash it as well.

[Radioguyreturns]

Ugly???

Thinkpads are beautiful. The only knock I can think of is the recent off-center screens, but that's not a major change either.

[infernojericho2006]

Damn right.

Thinkpads may look plain and are definitely uncomparable to the eye candy Sony VAIOs, but that's the most beautiful part of it.

Thinkpads are supposed to be pure, rugged, durable machines that is all about getting the job done.

A lot of folks hate to see Lenovo kill the Thinkpad tradition, that is, black case + red trackpoint.

By the way, I am unimpressed with the video, the the biker did some bunny hops, then log into Windows, I'd be impressed.

[zhenjiezhang]

thinkpads are not just square black cases, you need to look closely and even need to feel and THINK to appreciate its beauty. This is exactly why it is not a cheap looking that catch eyes with meaningless colors and foolish curvatures, those are for teenage kids, not for a man who thinks.

[ncdirtrider]

what, no bunny hop on it?

[vespamania]

very durable....thinkpad
