    Your T500 produces this sound? Is Lenovo service good?

    Hello,

    I have two T61 ones and they make no sound when being held in hands and shaken horizontally.

    For my new T500, it does produce sound suggesting something may be loose. So I called Lenovo and they asked me to send it back with Lenovo-prepaid pacakge (this is good).

    Now I got my T500 back, sreviced. However, it still produces the same sound but not so often as it was before.

    So my questions:

    Do your T500 produce sound in the same condition? Is it normal?

    What do you think of Lenovo's service? Did they fix the problem? I am confused.

    Thanks for your input!!!

    well lets see....first off all i dont think you should be shaking your laptop in any direction. and your laptop has mecanical parts so of course when you shake it it will make sounds.

    My T61 also makes an estrange sound when I carry it, but this sound stops as soon as I put my laptop horizontally. I'm not worry about this.

    Thanks for your input. Not sure whether it makes to me. When I called Lenovo, they asked me to send it back.

    Is it normal for T500 or T61 makes sound in the same condition? My two T61 are very solid!!!
