Haven't tested, but with graphics i have i bet it wont leg:)

T61 is more business class, where as R61 is a daily use, more "plastic-feel" laptop. I had my experience with both machines, and definitely, T61 wins out.

[BlackCarbon2008]

Yes, about an inch or so. It doesnt matter for me even though i would not mind having it fit right in like 4-cell one.

[BlackCarbon2008]

Yes, I've got Turbo Memory 1 Gb. But i have nothing to compare it with. The only thing i can say is that Vista Ultimate 64 bit flies on it =P

[BlackCarbon2008]

Well since i have a completely new installed Vista 64 Ultimate, i dont have any problems whatsoever. But i cant guarantee u wont get blue screen....I highly recommend to reinstall the system because they load it with so much crap, which at the same time is useful sometimes. It's ur choice. But i am pretty sure u will love your's. I was really waiting for a perfect laptop - i can say it out loud - I FOUND ONE. Believe me or not i am a picky about computers but i finally found a good one.

[BlackCarbon2008]

I cannot guaranty that u will get the same laptop, but mine is this :

CPU does not produce any noise, runs really quite and not hot at all. Rigidly stable, barely noticeable on the lap and NVidea i have not tested because i and not a gamer, but Vista index says - gaming graphics 4.6

but only for office

but not for me: D

price?

[gtastuntcrew302]

I have a t61 as well and its amazing,, really I didnt expect to get such an good frame rate in source engine games it really surprised me. but geez the quadro 140m is actually a really great card.. dont expect it to play crysis at a playable frame rate. However Half life 2, and counterstrike source run great (: along with all the other source engine games. Great notebook (:

@NuKayon what video card do you have in your thinkpad T61?

[lifanus]

search for nvidia 140m in google, nvidia's official page pops up and there are specifications, i cant link to youtube.

[athlon866]

can you give me the link that supports the statement? i really don't see much news on 140M.

[lifanus]

@athlon866 ya, it supports DX10 and HD.

[athlon866]

yep. after i get rid of vista and replaced it with win 7, everything works fine.

does 140M supports DX10 and HD?

[lifanus]

@athlon866 make sure you have proper driver installed and it is functioning properly, or your laptop indeed have a quardo 140m in it, not integrated intel graphic card.
