    Yes, it is a t61. One annoying thing is that lenovo does not allow upgrading the warranty on the Outlet site.

    Don't understand the memory config. Why does it say 1Gb then on the same line 2 GB?

    My guess would be it has two sticks; one 1GB and one 2GB, for a total of 3GB system memory.
