I used to do computer consulting and support as a sideline business, and two years ago had a job which involved installing Windows 2000 and a brand-new IBM T20 and configuring it for the company's network. I had just bought a brand-new Toshiba Satellite...
Pros: I love this laptop! It's size, processor, and large hard drive won me over. Cons: It is pricey, but other than that I have no complaints.
Well, Epinions lack of new categories strikes again. This is a review of the IBM ThinkPad X20, but I'm placing it in the T20 category since there is no X20 category. If you notice that one has been created please drop me an e-mail and I'll...
Pros: Very fast, incredible screen display, nice appearance Cons: Not so light and a little expensive
Well, what can I say about the T20 other than what a machine. I have used the 600 family, the 380 family, and the 570. I work with these systems all day. But one thing caught my attention most about the T20. For starters, the sleep mode has finally...
Pros: Light weight, nice display, powerful profile Cons: Price, internal design problem, mismatch with some software with default settings.
As the title goes, let me assume you won a lottery. Also, let's assume you want to buy a very high-end light weight notebook especially by IBM. Then, you probably want to check out IBM Thinkpad T20. Otherwise....
Pros: Powerhouse, crisp & clear screen, sturdy feel, excellent DVD playback Cons: Not the lightest, difficulty changing OS, graphics lacking
Hi There! Let Me Introduce You To…
The laptop that is hailed as a top choice in the world of notebooks. This machine is for the professional user and has some very wonderful points in its favor, but it falls short of being the perfect...
Pros: Excellent build quality, lightweight, everything works out of the box Cons: Light on application software, expensive
OK, I think this is going to be long review, so brace yourself.
I have been researching computers for 2 years now, and have never bought one because I've always had a laptop from work decided it would be too much of a hassle to maintain two...
Pros: All-around great computer Cons: This much quality costs a lot
I wrote a review way back about the IBM A20. It blew me away. Last week my company placed my name on the first list for a T20. After several days of playing with my newest toy, I've come to the realization that IBM has built an almost perfect machine....
The IBM T20 is one of the most satisfactory machines I have had the pleasure of using. I believe it has been superseded by the T21 which appears to be the same but with enhancements such as more hard disk space and a faster processor; the machines can...
Pros: Titanium Composite top and bottom covers, mobile pentium III processor featuring intel speedstep technology, and a battery that lasts up to 3.7 hours. Cons: the mouse is too small (but external mouse's are available)
Protected by Titanium Composite covers, ThinkPad T Series notebooks are the lightest, high performance mobile computers around today....amount many features....they have a Mobile Pentium III processor with Intel SpeedStep technology, and a battery that...
Pros: Lightweight, great display, can do anything Cons: Price
WHY I BOUGHT THE T20:
My previous ThinkPad was great and reliable, but at two years old, the 385-ED was getting slow, and the 2Gb HD meant I was either going to spend a fair amount of money to get a larger drive and replace the now-dead...
Pros: Lightweight, sturdy, well built, innovative features Cons: Expensive!
I bought this laptop about 6 months ago. I was looking for something lightweight, so that I would not break my shoulder while carrying it around, but with enough features built-in so that I do not have to attach all peripherals externally just to use it....
The IBM Think Pads are the standard machines for executives. They are usually powerful and costs tons. They are also black. They are small for the power which they harness. They should be great for everyone, if they only cost less…
Pros: Thin, light, blazing fast, awesome screen and great options! Cons: Price...OUCH!
Introduction:
I've been shopping for a notebook for about two months and I've had my eye on IBM's sleek T series. It's thin and light which makes it a great notebook for those who travel a lot or, like myself, take it to classes.
...
Pros: Great screen, good amount of RAM, tech support is more than adaquate Cons: locks sometimes
Value for Price: 9/10
The overall value for the price of this system is not the best. It comes with 128 megs of RAM, which is good. The display panel is more than adaquate... it gives you a brilliant display, and it's 12.1 in, which works...
I recently gave the Thinkpad 600X a rave review so how could a notebook really improve upon it? That was my attitude as I first opened the T20. I doubted that it could really be all that much better; instead, I figured it would be only marginally better...
Pros: I love this laptop! It's size, processor, and large hard drive won me over. Cons: It is pricey, but other than that I have no complaints.
Well, Epinions lack of new categories strikes again. This is a review of the IBM ThinkPad X20, but I'm placing it in the T20 category since there is no X20 category. If you notice that one has been created please drop me an e-mail and I'll move this...
Pros: Durable exterior construction, easy to use, tons of features. Cons: Poor volume control. Keys break off easy. Some hardware problems.
I work for a huge company that a few months ago purchased about 1200 of these IBM t20 laptops and rolled them out to users at remote offices all over the country. I work as an analyst on the helpdesk and am responsible for supporting these laptops and a...
Pros: It has a fast microsilicon processor, that is on par with its competitors. Cons: Overall, its not a great bargain, and the display is strange.
To say the least, IBM has disapointed me. Not since the great overexaggeratedm "super-computer" of the mid 80's has IBM put out such a farse. However, Ill let you, the customer decide by giving you the one-two on the IBM Thinkpad T20.
Lightest ThinkPad notebook with a 13.3'' screen - The sleek, new ThinkPad T20 packs a lot of performance into a thin and light package. The Titanium Composite in the top and bottom covers of this 1.3"-slim notebook creates a lighweight design with...
My company ordered 600 new T20s, and we've received about 50 of them so far. Apparently IBM can't make them fast enough because they're delayed in shipping. But anyways, back to the product.
The new T20 is one of the finest laptops I've seen...
Pros: Hot Swappable Drive Bay, Small Size, Great Graphics Cons: Price, OS Upgrade Ablility
My company decided that I needed a laptop. So they went out and supplied me with an IBM ThinkPad T20. All in all it is a wonderful machine. The processor is a Pentium III 750; my machine has a 18GB hard drive, and 128MB of RAM. The display measures...
Pros: Ease of use, lightweight Cons: could be more durable
The IBM ThinkPad series has always been one of my favorites. Because of it's ease of use, portability. and optional features. The t-20 and t-21 series are the best yet. bringing all the best features along for the ride.
Pros: Small,light weight, convenient Cons: keyboard is small
I needed a machine with more memory, portability and capable of using my software. I found what I wanted in the T20 and called it my dream machine. The dream part was because of the $3,000 plus price.
Pros: Fast, light, big display, 18GB drive Cons: Gets way to hot on your lap and hands
My company has been and continues to provision all employees with IBM laptops. Excellent dependability and service. The cost is a bit higher than other lines but the product is really solid, durable and functional.
Pros: Light-weight, upgradeable, good price Cons: battery life, crashes
I had used the IBM Thinkpad while I was working at the Stock Exchange. Everybody at the Exchange who traveled a lot was equipped with a Thinkpad. I would go to some hotel, plug it in and I was connected.
When I changed jobs, I was so used to it that...
Pros: Sturdy, compact, powerful desktop replacement. Cons: Expensive, 3hrs battery life just okay.
I couldn't find any reviews on the ThinkPad T21 which is basically a T20 with a speed bump using PIII 800mhz or 850mhz chips and a slightly different configuration for its video display.
I had a HP OmniBook 6000 just before buying this and...
Pros: Great size & POWER. Cons: Needed a bigger display.
IBM didn't skimp out on this laptop. Their reputation for quality shines in the T series notebooks. The top and bottom covers are titanium composite plastic, making it tough and lighter than most other notebooks.
Pros: powerful, thin, light, latest features, well designed Cons: NONE
The Thinkpad T20, the flagship of the Thinkpad line, is the most well designed laptop that has come out of any company yet. It is also the sexiest in my opinion (well other than the new titanium Powerbook but that is an Apple and is therefore inherently...
Pros: Display, speed, easy of swapping CD and diskette drive Cons: price
I recently upgrade from an old IBM Thinkpad 765L to the new IBM T20. Man oh man have there been changes in technology in a few scant years.
The T20 has a very large display and it is beautiful to look at, no need to plug an external monitor into...
Pros: Lightweight, stylish, simple to use features Cons: Price
Well what can I say? I have had this machine since September last year and I am delighted. This machine is everything IBM says and much more. I have mine loaded up to 512MB RAM and a 30GB HDD with a now multi-region DVD to boot. This machine has been a...
Pros: Very Sturdy for Frequent Traveller Cons: A bit heavy.
Thinkpads are known for being heavyweights and sturdy. T-20 keeps up that tradition. Its quite heavy unlike others like Toshiba and Dell. But being heavy, it is quite sturdy and for a frequent traveller, that can help since handling requires your laptop...
I really like this laptop. It's sleak, it's very durable, and it's really lightweight, I can throw it into any backpack or suitcase and I barely even notice the weight difference. With 700 mhz behind this baby, nothing is a pain to load. If you love to...
Pros: Speed, Hard Drive Space, Build Quality Cons: Hard Drive Carrier
I've had the unique experience of configuring 250 IBM Thinkpad T20's over the last week. I can't look at them anymore. The one thing that becomes painfully obvious about this pc, is the annoying hard drive bay.
Pros: Very sturday and effecient Cons: Could be lighter
This laptop has a very impressive covering on the outside, looks very solid. It is very sturdy, yet refined in its appearance. The screen is could be brighter ( but tis not below average), and the performance is excellent. The keys on the previous 770ED...
Pros: Fast, Reliable, impressive feature listing. Cons: Not cheap, a battery hog.
I was issued a T20 three months ago by the company that I work for. I like this computer, but I'm glad that I didn't have to pay for $3,400 purchase price for it. This computer came loaded, however, (256MB RAM, DVD, docking station, extra power pack,...
My company ordered 600 new T20s, and we've received about 50 of them so far. Apparently IBM can't make them fast enough because they're delayed in shipping. But anyways, back to the product.
The new T20 is one of the finest laptops I've seen...
Pros: none Cons: battery dies out in a matter of hours.
This laptop is much too expensive for its quality first of all. I dont believe that it is worth it. The laptop drains batteries incredibly fast compared to my 200 mhz computer. Second of all, its a complete piece of junk! Several of the keys fell off...
This laptop includes 4 easy launch buttons which will take you easily to your favorite Web destinations. It also has Track Point pointing device and internet scrolling bar which includes the Press To Select Feature. It has great multimedia and...
Pros: Light, Great Screen, Fast Cons: Haven't found one yet
I am the President of a recent eBusiness Start-up for a major insurance company in Chicago, IL. We needed a powerful, portable solution for 150 new employees for this start-up. We chose the IBM Thinkpad T20 with 128 MB of RAM, an 18 Gig Hard Drive and...
Pros: Screen size, form factor, product support Cons: Expensive, no trackpad available
If you are sick of carrying around a 7 pound "desktop replacement" laptop but you still want the cutting edge performance, the IBM ThinkPad T20 is a fabulous option.
Weighing in at 4.6 pounds with a 14.1" screen, a large hard...
Pros: Large/bright screen, fast, keyboard light, DVD, hot swappable drives Cons: Short battery life, pricey, no trackpad
If you have the money, this is a great little laptop. The large, bright screen is the first thing you notice. The keyboard is easy to use and has a nice "bounce" to it.
When working on the plane or in dim situations a nice light shines down...
Pros: Good balance between power and portability, bright screen Cons: cost, reduced size keyboard, support issues, 2 spindle design
I bought this computer a few months back and wanted to use it a little before I submitted a review. Here it goes, the good, the bad, and the ugly on this notebook:
The good:
~~~~~~~~~
This is a light machine with a 14.1" TFT...
Pros: Fast, smart, reliable and mobile. Cons: The Price.
This Lab-Top is one of the greatest in its class. The IBM Thinkpad T20 comes with the newest technology possible. Its fast and reliable with a 700MHZ Pentium 3 Processor and with 12 Gigabytes to play with you could fit plenty of "junk". You have...
Pros: Lightweight, feature packed, stable Cons: high price, DVD playback not smooth
I got the opportunity to use the IBM T20 when my company decided to standardize on the newer T20 and make the older Thinkpad 570 obsolete. My first impressions of this machine was that it felt light, yet also sturdy. Unlike the 570, the T20 includes...
Pros: Ease of use, lightweight Cons: could be more durable
The IBM Thinkpad series has always been one of my favorites. Because of it's ease of use, portability. and optional features. The t-20 and t-21 series are the best yet. bringing all the best features along for the ride.
Everything about this notebook is excellent. It has a really tough case, excellent support for Linex, gorgeous large screen, good DVD playback, audio etc. There is nothing I can fault, except for the pathetic keyboard. It is so bad, that I sent it...
Pros: Quality, Speedy (not for 3D Games) Cons: Price, Slow 3D performance.
I only had my T20 for about 3 months. Thus far, I am more than delighted/impressed. My previous laptop was a Dell Inspiron 7000. That Dell was a great machine. However it is of no competition for the T20. The T20 is faster than all other laptops in...
Pros: the weight,style,and power Cons: none really
The IBM T-20 notebooks are the lightest, high performance mobile computers around today....amount many features they have a Mobile Pentium III processor with Intel SpeedStep technology, and a battery that lasts up to almost 4 hours and on top of it...
Pros: Fast, fairly light weight Cons: No "Windows" key on the keyboard
I received this machine through work. I have always been skeptical about IBM hardware having experience with older IBM equipment. However, I am highly impressed with the T20. The system originally had Windows 98 installed, however, with my line of...
Pros: 600 mhz, Amazing screen, Beautifully modeled, powerful, large hard drive. Cons: Expensive
Well, IBM's gone and done it again. They outdid themselves for the 100th time, and this time they did it exceptionaly well. With every new labtop, IBM makes them stronger, faster, lighter, and even nicer looking. The IBM Thinkpad T20 is an exceptional...
Pros: Light, compact, easy to carry and AWESOME computer to use Cons: None!
I had the opportunity to borrow an IBM T20 on a business trip. I had to be out of town for a week and need to access to a computer while I was gone. Having used laptops before, frankly I figured that I would miss my PC more than my wife. While I...
Pros: High quality, good service. Compatibility of hardware to IBM parts and software incomparable. Cons: With no-name brand hardware there are compatibility problems. No floppy drive.
I've heard a lot about the cons of laptop computers. Yeah they break easily. Yeah they are more expensive. Yeah you have to have a whole bunch of attachments on it in order to have all the options (in comparison to the desktop). But I sincerely like...
Pros: improve the performance,fix some bugs Cons: some risk,maybe damaged computer
As a experienced computer user,you must know what it mean that upgrade your computer's BIOS to the newest version,especially for the newest laptop model "Thinkpad T20".
Last week, I download the newest BIOS version 1.07,and upgrade...
My friend bought this laptop recently, and he was very disapointed. He spent around 3500 dollars and he got a laptop that was worth only 2000 dollars. Dont get me wrong, this laptop is good and if you have any extra money to spend, then by all means get...
Pros: Speed, Size, Hard Drive Space Cons: HD Carrier, Temp.
Let me start out by saying this is a great laptop. I haven't seen a laptop this fast before in my life. With 750 mhz, you won't be needing another one for a long time. However, if you plan on using this on planes, or other confined areas, make sure you...
Pros: Power, Speed, and memory all in a thin package. Cons: IBM wants more for their stuff, too much more.
This IBM thinkpad is one hot laptop! It's lightweight, sleek looking, and is a technological marvel for how they packed that much power (all 700MHz!) in such a thin box. It's also literally hot. It gets HOT! THIS MIGHT BE ONE LAPTOP YOU DON'T WANT TO SET...
Pros: Portability, Powerful , Cons: can not use CD-Rom and floppy at same time
At the first time when I use the Thinkpad T20 2647-41c,I was shocked by its features,14" wildly screen ,2.3kg light weight,and powerful performance.
But as the time goes by, I also found some inconvenience point:
1.You can not use the...
Pros: Fast, Powerful, Light Weight Cons: Gets real hot after 30 minutes of use
When I refer to the latest Thinkpad from IBM as a hot product, I mean it literally...This thing gets so hot after about 30 minutes of use that you can barely stand keeping it on your lap! I actually have spoken to someone who has gotten burned by it,...
Pros: The Complete High End Package Cons: battery life; price
I love my new T20. After spending 2 months researching every entrant in the world of high performance notebooks, I decided on a T20 700mhz, and I'm glad I did. There are cheaper laptops out there offering similar features. But you can't get all of the...
Pros: This has got to be one of the best machines on the market. Cons: You have to get use to the mouse on this laptop.
OK.OK. Enough marketing from me or anyone. But i do have to tell you that after friends of mine saw the laptop, they were amazed. The only thing that hindered their purchase was and is the price. But you get for what you paid for with this machine. And I...
Pros: Powerful, Clear Screen, fast, lots of RAM, thin Cons: Costs a lot
We have purchased several of these laptops at my place of employment and I must say this is one of the best laptops I have seen. It features 128MB of RAM, plenty for any application you plan on running. It has a crystal clear display which is easy on...
