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: 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: 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...
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: 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: 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: 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: 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: 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: 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...
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,...
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: 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....
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.
