IBM T60 Thinkpad Ienovo
By Texan onI work for a company that has always bought IBM computers.I have had three computers in my 10 years there.2 laptops and one desktop.I have had this laptop (IMB T60 Thinkpad) for 2 years and have had a number of issues with it.I have received the "blue screen of death" and on boot up sometimes it would freeze.These issues only increased when I decided to add an extra 1 Gig of memory.Also after adding the memory the screen would freeze in the middle of working.The 1 Gig of memory was not the cheapest either.I bought name-brand Kingston memory.Due to the freeze-ups I have lost a lot of work.I have since removed the memory and the freeze-ups have stopped but not the occasional blue screen and boot up freeze.
Another issues is related to the docking station.Sometimes the laptop does not undock properly and takes a while to recover after undock/dock.I have also had the occasional wireless network issues when docking/undocking.
Other than the problems, this computer has some decent features.I like the screen.I run at 1400x1050 and it looks good.Speed is so-so, it was definitly an upgrade from my previous laptop (IBM T40 Thinkpad).My T60 has a Intel Core 2 T5600 @ 1.83GHz.DVD works well.
Others in my company have also had issue with these laptops.Many have complained about network and screen resolution issues when docking/undocking.I would recommend staying away from the IBM T60 Laptops in general.I think the quality issues have increased since they moved to lenovo, because I do not remember this many issues with my IBM T40. I have not had the chance to try the newer laptops, so I hope IBM has made improvements.
