Have a Lenovo T61 &amp; Tt60P now. The T60P is Lacking on Graphics. The T61 Does ok with Flash games. How Would the T400 Fair with Flash based Games?

The need for speed lies within games. The dual processor helps the graphics card. I don't play games but do video editing with my T400 and it's too slow for good editing. Variables are within your OS. A 64 bit system will outrun the 32 bit system. Hard drive speed/ mine is 7200 Hitachi...also helpful.

Yes. If your T60p has been modified it may accept the same memory as the T400 think pad.

Oh, my laptop is T60, whether T400 will work for this&#65292;you should search on the web

Hi Ernest, Here's what I found on the Lenovo Forums site - http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T430s-mSATA-speed/td-p/767485. According to what they say here, NO, your t430 will not support this drive because the msata port is sata2 not sata 3 which is what this drive is. Good news is it does support SSD msata 2 so you need to look for an msata 2 drive....

Yeah, I got Ubuntu running on the X3 (same compy, just silver and a smaller HDD and rated 1 hour less battery life). Natively, only the sound drivers work [with the fn vol +/-/mute working] (neither the ethernet or wireless worked). I found some forum that I don't recall googling about it, and some guy suggested buying an ethernet usb hub to get the necessary packages... Waste of 44bucks. I used ubuntu backports [I am trying to find the packages to link..], restarted and it was running both wireless (with med-strong signal strength compared to win7 with strong+ at this distance) and wired. It glitched once, but a restart and update got it working fine. Without the interwebs on it, you have to download the .deb packages on another system and bring them over with a flashdrive. Screen brightness control so far only works on two settings (adjusted using FN+num key). I haven't messed with it much to get it fully working. Compiz: Fully working, all the effects I like are enabled (i.e. Animations, Cube, 3D windows, etc). I guess that is all to say, if you're a linux nerd like me - you can get it working. It just takes some research and basic know how. EDIT: Oh, and battery life on every laptop I have ever put linux on as lost battery life... I know with mad customization you can get it better. But with battery rated at 11.5hrs for mine, I run Ubuntu for around 6.5 easy (with full performance enabled)... That is just my short experience with it.

I have an R61 so I can't vouch for its compatibility with a T60 personally. However, a quick Google search seems to show that at least a subset of Lenovo's OEM AC adapters "are compatible with the ThinkPad T60, T60p (6369, 6370, 6371, 6372, 8741, 8742, 8743, 8744) Wide screen models." To be certain, I would put the question to the vendor. Make sure to include your full system series and model number (e.g., mine is Lenovo ThinkPad R61 8918CTO). If you can't find it on the sticker on the bottom of your computer (mine peeled off and disappeared long ago) or in your documentation (where did I put that, already?), the freeware Windows programs Belarc Advisor or Speccy will display it for you, Belarc Advisor in the Computer Profile Summary section under the heading System Model (in the upper right of the section), and Speccy in the Motherboard section opposite Model and Version (toward the very top of the section).

Yes, it will definitely fit in a T400S. I have the same model of Lenovo and purchased this drive for it a few months ago. Very difficult to find an SSD of this physical size! It does not come with a "tab" to allow you to grab when removing the drive though - I had to fashion a makeshift one. Otherwise it's a solid fit for this laptop.

I'm running maya 2013 on mine. So far, I can tell you the biggest drawbacks of using maya on the y510p for me have been the lack of a second screen and the fact that you will basically be required to use a usb mouse since the trackpad won't be able to handle it. But I'm guessing you already know about those. The graphics card holds up pretty well, even while using viewport 2.0, and I've been rendering using Octane which utilizes both GPUs for a pretty solid performance. I haven't done any big renders pushing the CPU, but I imagine it'd work about what you'd expect for an i7. Also, this has been my first laptop with a number pad, and it has made life so much nicer for this type of work. All in all, it's very solid. You could probably find a laptop that could do better in maya, but it would also probably be huge and very expensive. I'm very satisfied with the performance of mine in this regard. Did you have any specific questions?

This laptop should be able to use services like netflix and amazon prime without a hitch as it all you need for netflix is a flash-capable browser, and for amazon prime you just need to meet the specs of amazon's unbox video player. I had got my thinkpad from tampa laptops, and i have had know problems. The T400 I had received is both my workhorse and social/media experience, and I have no regrets.specs for amazon unbox video playerhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=3759

While this is a lovely laptop for old video games, it is not suitable for student use because the Intel Core Duo Processors (notice the lack of a "2" after "Core") are only 32-bit. All modern consumer computers have 64-bit processors. The minimum for student use would be two 64-bit processors. Anything with only one processor would be painfully slow on the Internet. Anything with 32-bit processors might be unable to run a piece of software that a student might need because that software is 64-bit only. A Thinkpad T400 might be adequate. Make sure you get 64-bit Windows 7.

I agree.Best to check with Lenovo/IBM first. (I installed one of These on my 410 without too much Trouble)

Folks, don't forget that after the TF700 goes on sale, the next version will be released. Do you wait for that one then? When do you decide to stop waiting and actually getting? :)

According the following URL link, yes: http://lenovo.com/us/en/PDFs/Thinkpad_t400_and_t500_datasheet.html

According to the specs of T400s, it's NOT work.You can google "thinkpad T400s msATA", or refer below:https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/mSATA-SSD-on-T400/td-p/1407231

Hi Joshua! It comes with Intel HD4000 Graphics card as mentioned in the website, so this one will basically work with standard games ok but not great whatsoever. This pc itself is great for everything else and with a good card it would become amazing I'm sure. You can go to Lenovo.com and there you should be able to see the "customize" buying option as well, to choose from different components for it.

I picked up an ep121 at fry's in concord last week, I have a CINTIQ 21UX, and I'm employed as a character artist. The cintiq pen and intuos pens won't work on it as people have already said. The pressure sensitivity is not working in photoshop, i think there's a driver fix for this but i haven't bothered with it. Photoshop works best with a keyboard/keypad anyways. Alias sketchbook pro will be your friend. The brushes work great and the program is stroke based. 256 levels of pressure sensitivity, it depends on the artist. It's fine for me, I don't know that my arm has 256 levels of pressure. The line quality is good and it's responsive while drawing. Awesome device for drawing on the go, or sitting on the couch. Any serious work you'll probably want to use a standard computer, but no reason you shouldn't be able to do great things on the ep121. Battery life i get around 3-4.5 hours depending on use. I hope they start shipping these things out to you all soon, I'm loving mine! ps. This thing also runs zbrush pretty well. although it's pointless to try to use zbrush with a resolution os 1200x800, the menu's are too filling. But, it CAN handle a million polygons without much problem. I didn't try maya on it yet. If anyone's interested i can give it a shot.

As long as you have a standard headshell it'll be perfectly fine. Make sure to get the recommended stylus: N 680 EI have these for my t60, sounds absolutely amazing :D
