    Just wondering how good the speakers are. I'm debating on this or the Acer 2025, which has a subwoofer and, I think, 4 speakers. Supposed to be some of the best laptop sound you can get. But the IBM t42p seems so "top of the line" in other areas, I was thinking they might have done the same with the speakers. I can't tell from the spec lists because I'm functionally illiterate when it comes to stereo technical knowledge.

    Notebook speakers are mostly bad to begin with, and the T-42's are particularly tinny sounding. If you listen to any classic radio broadcasts, they'll sound remarkably authentic through the T-42.
