T60P 2007 UXGA desktop screenshot

Hello,

I am planning to buy the discontinued Thinkpad T60P 2007 from my university store primarily because it sports the 15" 1600 x 1200 - UXGA display. It is to replace my Sony PCG-GRX500P which also has a 16" UXGA display. Apart from mundane use I program quite a bit and the UXGA comes handy.

But my concern is whether the UXGA on a 15" will make things a lot "tiny". It will help if someone who owns a T60P with UXGA post couple of snapshots of your desktop with some applications(Firefox etc) running at full resolution to gauge what to expect when I've the puppy. If you happen to program, a snapshot of some code on an IDE(Eclipse ???) with split window will be awesome. Thanks

Best,
SR

 

UXGA T series ThinkPads are no longer available. where are you getting this? I think you mean SXGA+, which I have. I LOVE it, ill post screenies when I get a chance

 

You might be able to find a pre-configured model with UXGA, but I heard they are expensive. I think if you are used to UXGA on a 16" screen, the 15" isn't too big of a leap.

 

I had UXGA on a Dell Inspiron 8200 and it was hard on the eyes. I did everything I could to enlarge the fonts, etc. without changing the screen resolution in the control panel. When you try to run any screen outside it's native resolution, it loses it's sharpness. Don't get me wrong, it was a beautiful screen, but I've sworn off ultra-hi res screens.

 

Hello Zeus,

I am getting them from my university store, they have 2 of these UXGA T60P models in stock. Looking forward for your screenshots

Thanks,
SR

Let me know if you want a pic of a specific app.

 

How did you get the time to be in large font size?

(This is on 1400x* resolution?)

 

It is a program called TClock. you cam download it here.

EDIT: yes, 1400x1050, standard DPI

 

Thanks Zeus, that helps!
