 DO NOT BUY LENOVO !!! October 9, 2008
M. Gorenyuk
I PURCHASED A LAPTOP FROM LENOVO. IT CAME 2 WEEKS LATER THAN PROMISED.
AS SOON AS I OPENED THE LAPTOP THE SCREEN BURNED. CALLED LENOVO THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WILL FIX IT FOR ME. I TOLD THEM THAT I PAID FOR A NEW COMPUTER AND NOT FOR USED ONE.
THEY TRANSFERED ME 6 TIMES TO DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS IN INDIA WHERE NOONE NEW WHAT THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT AND WERE READING FROM THE BOOK.
LENOVO'S PRODUCT ALL COMES FROM CHINA AND THE QUALITY IS PRETTY MUCH LIKE THE MILK WITH WHICH THEY POISONED 90000 PEOPLE.
I KNOW FOR SURE I WILL NEVER EVER BUY ANYTHING FROM LENOVO.
 does the job, tough laptop August 28, 2008

this is one solid laptop, what with the built in lcd and body rollcage and the hard drive airbags you cant go wrong. the cooling system is top of the line and very quiet. all of these factors mean that your investment will last! if your computer ever does crash, with the push of a button your computer is restored os and all! The keyboard is probably the best designed laptop keyboard out there and it even has a built in drain. If you ever happen to spill liquid on it, it will just drain out the bottom
really the only cons i found was that it is a must that you add more ram, it will improve performance greatly and it is actually very easy to do.
Essentially Dead on Arrival November 28, 2007

Needed an XP machine and bought the T61. On first boot up, I got the error message: TPM device unable to communicate... and so I followed the instructions in the on line help which indicated the TPM chip had been deactivated and I should go into the BIOS and activate it. Well, I did that and then the computer just beeped at me and did nothing else and was as dead as a doorstop.
Another defect is that as shipped, every time you load IE7 and first open a tab, there is about a 3 second delay which has to do with redundant security checking as configured by Lenovo. (There is a workaround posted on the Internet.) I can't imagine what they were thinking to ship a notebook which throws in a 3 second delay every time you open Internet Explorer. I also can't imagine not turning on the computer before shipping it to me and seeing that error messages were coming up.
Finally, I purchased a 1 year onsite service agreement but the tech support personnel said they had no record of it even though it is clearly marked on my invoice and so they would not send a tech person out. Instead, they told me it needed a new mainboard and I could ship the unit back and wait for them to fix it.
Well, I summarize:
1) Purchased "ONSITE" warranty but the company refused to send a technician out for a nearly DOA machine.
2) As configured, there is an annoying 3 second delay every time you open a new tab in IE7.
3) Machine shipped with a defective TPM security chip and it appears the manufacturer never even turned the computer on to test the inital bootup and see the error message.
