Worth the value -- lighter laptop
After taking over business from IBM, Lenovo really implemented some new technology to make laptops lighter. While it is not all bad, the new (IBM-less) ThinkPad T41 did make some positive steps towards performance and durability. Using alloy in the case adds to the durability by protecting the LCD against bumps and grinds. Upgraded video and desktop speed(7200 RPM) hard drive make it appealing, if you can overlook the noisy optical drive, and the 95 minute battery life. Built in IBM access connections programs are easy to configure wireless connection for various profiles and switch between profiles. Although trackball is not intuitive but mouse pad is smoother than its earlier versions. TFT active matrix display is better than previously release x40 version. AS usual Windows XP preloaded helped to install all other windows application relatively easy. Long battery life keep this laptop at the front of the pack. **It is the best ultraportable notebooks on the market.**
