    Just want to let all of you know, Z60t
    notebook use Carbon Fiber. All Black colour Lid
    Z60t use Carbon Fiber as standard. The CF
    they use are called "CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics)"
    But it is hiddened under the paint....!

    ThinkPad Z60t 「ThinkPadブラック」モデルのトップカバーでは、
    持ち運んで使うことを前提とした強度と軽さをバランスよく両立させるため、
    航空機や車のボディーにも採用されている技術ハイブリッドCFRP※を採用。
    液晶パネルを守る硬度を保ち、同時にモバイルに適した軽量な構成を実現

    ※ハイブリッドCFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics) ：
    2層にした炭素繊維の間に比重の軽い発泡材層を挟み込んだ複合素材​

    水に浮くほど軽いハイブリッドCFRPのトップカバー
    ThinkPadの一部製品に使われているABS素材とハイブリッドCFRP使用のトップカバーの軽さを比較した内容などを紹介。

    If you put the Z60t in a ZipLock Bag & put it in
    the water. It's then waterproof.....!

    you could use it as a float if you happen to be using a z60t on a boat that happens to sink.

    maybe you should buy some more of these and make an unsinkable boat? :)
    what happens if you throw a T60 in to water?
