    Hey all

    At my last position I was IT manager for a nationwide company and was purchasing Thinkpads by the 100. Somewhere in that time I noticed the T41s switched from the Pentium M logo on the left palm rest to the centrino. Anyone tell me if there was a difference in spec that then caused IBM to re-badge. Was this due to the Dothan processor ??

    ANyone know how I can find these different models when buying from the web, ebay etc

    The reason I ask is that I think this is the way I will go again for my new personal laptop and I remember noticing a difference in the laptops wearing the centrino badge

    Thnx
