The I'm Peeing in My Pants I'm Waiting for the T61p Thread:

Exactly what the heading says. All of us poor, poor, souls who breathlessly await the arrival of the T61p unite! (And Sound Off!)

For Fun-

1)What kind of T61p you're waiting for?
2)How long you've been waiting?
3)What you're gonna use it for?

1)
2.4 Ghz
15.4 WUXGA
100GB 7200RPM HD
4GB PC2-5300 DDR2 SDRAM 667MHz
Intel Turbo Memory
Vista Business
4 year Depot Protection/Warranty/LoJac
MS Office Professional 2007
8x Dual Layer DVD Burner
PC/Express Card slots
Fingerprint Reader
7 cell li ion battery (cross fingers for 9?)
T60 Docking Station

2)Since 4/13/2007
3)Business School and Warcraft Three!!! =)

 

Oh man. I hate to say it, but you are WAY overpowering that machine. If you have money to blow, go ahead. But I can tell you that you don't need the 2.4Ghz processor, 4gigs of ram and the WUXGA is pushing it. You would do better to lower the ram and processor and get a better harddrive (maybe 7k200)

 

Maybe these will help:

1)
Must be a 4:3 screen, otherwise it’s the T60p for me.
Either 2.0 or 2.4 GHz, probably the 2.0 though.
7200 RPM HDD
1GB from Lenovo then replace with 4GB of 800MHz once released.
Intel Turbo Memory
Vista Business or Ultimate
1 year Depot plan or whatever is cheapest.
Will go with the battery that is flush so if it’s the 4 cell then so be it, course I’ll stack it with the ultra bay battery.

2) About a month and it’s torture.
3. Travel, class, but I play WC3 on desktop.

 

As I understand it, the Santa Rosa chip set doesn't support RAM clocked at 800 MHz. Apparently it immediately clocks it down to 667 MHz.

Here is the thread that confirms the above.

As for myself, i'm waiting for a T61p, but not sure if i'm even going to take the plunge on it when it comes out...
