hi lead_org can I ask you how u like your w701ds? brightness and colors of the LCD? W701 was on my short list but I got a good deal on a W700ds with warranty was hard to resist. the reviews on the W700ds were pretty right on, uneven keyboard , ok to average screen (needs a sweet spot on the screen),...

thanks for everyone comments, the soft keyboard I saw on Youtub was from the new Alienware M18x, theres some similar videos for the new Dell workstation as well.. my first notebook was a dell and it was ok..and 8 Thinkpads followed, so kinda hard to use anything else after that.. :oops: This week I ...

Thanks all,
on spec its impressive, but my desire ended..after seeing someone posted some videos on youtub
on the Flex(Ability) of the Alienware keyboard ..
it looked like a soft bed

Any one have any experience with (newer)Alienware ? I have never seen one in person, know they are well equipped gaming machines with hefty price.. wondering about their fit and finish, keyboard, screens ,ergonomics and overall quality, services ect..ect..compare to thinkpads (I know its an apple to...

Dell's workstation the M4600 is also 15 inch and has the exact configurable components as the W520... in addition it has 2 fans one for CPU and the other for the GPU AND IPS screen option .. :x it even has that little pointing stick... But don't like Dells' keyboard and thinkpad still has the best t...

Thanks chairsky and Q-ball for your insight, nice to see people enjoying tweaking their thinkpads... I don't do over clocking or know how to and I don't have any special programs to see how fast my system components can run... But i did a simple non-scientific stress test to test by T60p... first I ...

Thanks Q-Ball for the detail explanation. and its very convincing indeed.. I would rather consider a new machine with newer technology and the sites you've pointed to looks very interesting January is when all the new Thinkpads are introduce..I am crossing my fingers of the possible return of IPS sc...

I been looking over here some of the responses on this site and the Lenovo community site regarding w520 overheating issue..

Thanks underclocker for the vote of confidence. :wink: I think I will save myself the trouble and not bother opening it, and send it back to Newegg for an Intel..

Great, I got one comin ...my first ssd for my 9 inch netbook...hope its not going to be too difficult

Underclocker you are so right... :oops: Thanks Brad for your advice, Iam wondering since u have both machines...Do u think its worth it to upgrade the T60p to a C2D T7600 and add a new Seagate Momentus XT drive to improve on its performance..(I don't want to spend additional $ on buying a SSD and a ...

I do alot of amateur videos stuff and my beloved T60p is showing its age.. Since the W701 is no longer available :x ...other than ebay, :evil: and the price is comparable to a top spec w520 :? so which one would be better. Iam not sure but can the W520 take 2 Hard Drives? i need 2 HD for Video stuff...

Looking for a working genuine ThinkPad Serial ATA Hard Drive Bay Adapter for my T60P
Part number: 40Y8725
Not the aftermarket one

Thanks rumbero and everyone for chiming in.. rumbero your comparison cleared it up.. I should have been more precise, I am looking for CardBus SDHC that fits flush into the T60p. I should have been more specific.. oh well since I've already ordered a ExpressCard SDHC last week..we'll see how that go...

Would this work for SDHC from Lenovo?
