Top All-Purpose Laptop – Lenovo ThinkPad R60

Are you a ThinkPad fan? I personally am not fond of the all-black covers of ThinkPad, they seem a little old- fashioned to me. I prefer the Sony VAIO which are much better looking. However, for business use, the look of the laptop is not important - the robustness and reliability are. In terms of business features, reliability, security and performance, the ThinkPad is always on the top of our list. So let’s have a look at the ThinkPad R60 (94554QM) today.

Features
  • Operating System: Windows XP Professional
  • Memory: 512 MB (1 GB recommended)
  • Hard drive: 80 GB
  • Processor: Intel Core Duo processor T2300e 1.66GHz
  • Display size: 15.0"
  • Resolution: 1400x1050
  • Graphics: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950
  • Weights (kgs): 2.95
  • Bay type: Ultrabay Enhanced
  • Optical: DVD Recordable
  • Ethernet: Integrated Gigabit Ethernet
  • Modem: 56K V.92 designed modem
  • Wireless: Sierra Wireless MC8755 PCI Express MiniCard, Bluetooth
  • Warranty: One year parts and labour (system battery: one year)
The highlight of this model is the embedded 3G wireless card. By having this, you can use Vodafone 3G broadband anywhere in the country (and in some other countries linked to Vodafone) without any additional hardware. It saves you a Vodafone 3G broadband connection card which normally costs around NZ$400.

The ThinkPad R60 replaces the old R52. As well as the features I’ve listed above, it also includes a modular bay with one-handed device swapping, the animated user manual, and the ThinkLight that illuminates the keyboard in dark rooms.

Overall, the Lenovo ThinkPad R60 is an all-purpose notebook PC for mainstream users on a budget. Click the link for more information and the latest pricing – Lenovo ThinkPad R60 (TopSeller Program) Notebook PC
