Lenovo have just updated their popular Z series Thinkpad line up with the dual core Z61p. It has a fingerprint reader, 15.4 inch wide-screen, and a host of wireless connection options, in fact all you'd want from a portable business class laptop.

Who says desktopreplacement laptops have to be clunkers? Not Lenovo. Their new Z61p packs the power of your standard tower, but in aframe that's only about 1.5 inches thick and weighs under 6pounds. All that with a 15.4-inch widescreen display attached toit. Lenovo should thank Intel for this more bang for the pound ratio. TheThinkPad has the latest Intel with 2.0 GHz and 2MBcache.
OK, Intel'sdual-processor hotrod can't take all the credit. How's 1 GB ofstandard memory, expandable to 4 GB, do you? Combine that withthe Intel 945PM "Napa" Express Chipset and an ATI Mobility FireGL graphics card, and you have a business laptop that basicallycan do as it pleases, as fast as it pleases.

Oh, and as long as it pleases. When this state-of-the-artThinkpad notebook is sleeping, it is a prime energy converter. It'searned the EPA Energy Star10 award for using less than 15 wattsof juice when sleeping. So despite the dark, business like chassis this notebook is trying to be green.

And speaking of mobile technology, the Thinkpad Z61p comes with proprietary technology such as UltraConnectantennas, which hook up the wireless LAN signal in most places inthe world. Or ThinkVantage Access Connection utilities, whichhelp you bounce your notebook effortlessly between your wireless and wiredInternet connection.

And this portable work station features top-notch securityfeatures that you'd expect in a business laptop. The ThinkVantagetechnologies include a fingerprint reader, a password manager, and the Client Security Solutionso that administrators can control the security of allthe office's ThinkPads. Lenovo's new Z series notebook arrived on the market July 25, so get the Z61p whilethe getting still is good.

    this is the best laptop ever, and will jaynes it isnt nearly loud enough to return it just because of the loud fan. you made a poor decision imo.

  • By: Will Jaynes Aug 07, 2008 2:42 PM

    I had to return my 1525. I liked everything about it, except the fan was very noisy, and it ran incessantly. I found this problem reported often on the Dell forums, and around the net in general.
