Pros: Vivid Screen, Nice Keyboard, Good Sound Cons: little problem with the trackpoint
IBM Thinkpads are NOT inexpensive. As a seller and a user of this particular product line I have a lot of experience with it. My step father purchased the Thinkpad 600X from me as a replacement to his Sony VAIO 505TX a few months back. The price at...
Pros: Portable and convenient, slim, light, bright screen. Cons: The floppy drive bay is still an issue; DVD drive takes up a lot of battery life
I spent quite a bit of time in my previous job assessing laptops. I needed to know as much as possible about Compaq Armadas (the 41XX series), Dell Latitudes, Toshibas (as many as you can count), IBM Thinkpads, and Sony Vaios. I've always been fond of...
Pros: Excellent equipment Cons: could not find any
I am a Production Support Engineer and my employer issued us the 600x so we have the capability of troubleshooting problems from anywhere. This product has performed flawlessly! The screen is very easy on the eyes, it is very lightweight so transporting...
This is definitely one of the best laptop I have used. The ergonomic design is awesome. The craftmanship is outstanding. The machine is compact and robust, yet without any sacrifice of functionality. This laptop is a little expensive compared to...
Pros: Superior keyboard, lots of power and features Cons: Slightly heavy for two-spindle machine; only 100Mb ZIP drive avail.
A fantastic piece of hardware. This is by far the finest computer I have ever purchased. Once again, IBM has managed to create quite possibly the best combination of power and portability in a laptop. This is the world-traveling road warriors dream...
Pros: Lightweight & Powerful, Trackpoint Mouse Cons: Long wait for delivery
I bought 9 of these Thinkpad 600X's direct from IBM for an awesome price of $2200 each. By default they had a PIII450, 64MB RAM, a 4.3GB Hard Drive, Sound, CDROM and a built in 56K modem. I added 64 MB of RAM (For a total of 128MB), and a 3COM 10/100...
Pros: Powerful, Very Light Weight, Exceptional Battery Life Cons: Drive Bay Not Hot Swappable, A Bit Pricey For Consumers
I just received an IBM ThinkPad 600X a couple of weeks ago to replace my ThinkPad 600E. I always get a little wary whenever I have something that is working well with something new. I always ask, "Why rock the boat?" Well my employer thinks...
Pros: Solid notebook, bright LCD, and relatively light Cons: 13.3" LCD, no Windows 2000 pre-installed
I used to have a IBM thinkpad 600E which I bought about a year ago for my last job, I loved every bit of it. Now I am with my new job and the whole company is using Dell Latitude so I thought I should stick with the company's normal practice. Not quite....
Pros: Balance of portability and power Cons: Expensive, hard to find
I've owned and used many different notebooks from many different manufacturers. Maybe it's because my first notebook was the Thinkpad 700C, but I find myself continually coming back to the Thinkpad series. My current notebook is a Thinkpad 600x Type 2645...
Pros: very light and good processing speed and very good screen Cons: Poor sound
I use the IBM Thinkpad 600x for my work and it is a great computer. My last laptop was bulky and very heavy with a very small screen. This IBM 600x is very thin, a wider screen and about half the weight. It is a great computer. It is even faster than...
Pros: Comprehensive, comfortable Cons: Price, not a 570, doesn't do well at 100 deg.
I spent a long time looking for a notebook computer that perfectly suited my needs. The IBM 600E does everything I need, and I have never regretted my choice for a minute.
I wanted a notebook that would replace my desktop machine with no loss...
I just bought this machine last week and it has a PIII 500 MHz processor with 128 MB RAM and a 12 Gig harddrive. This machine is so unbeleivabley fast. It is incredible. It has a hot swappbable cd-rom drive and I just love it. The picture is crystal...
Pros: Fast, clear and bright screen, thin and lightweight, a classic! Cons: Premium price, monolithic and expensive technical support.
A trip down memory lane...
I was issued my first IBM Laptop during my first UNIX systems administration job in the early nineties. The unit was big, bulky, very expensive and difficult to support. The older, smaller viewable-screen (I...
This is a class product. We received it, turned it on, then immediately loaded Widows 2000. The IBM Web Site had already given us the necessary files for the update. We knew that many of the programs that come prepackaged with the machine were not going...
