IBM THINKPAD X31 CENTRINO-1.6G ( 2672PBU ) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)this is my fourth or fifth thinkpad and my second in the "X" line (previously i owned an X21). i love it, i simply love it. i've used it under windows, BSD, and Linux and it's flawless under all of them.
the built-in wireless works as advertised, and gets great range and reception. too bad it's only 802.11b, but i will make do.
the built in ports (USB, firewire, VGA) are useful and superb, especially for meetings and travelling. the built-in CF slot is awesome for getting pics off of my camera.
the unit's size and weight are perfect for stashing in my bag as i hope on a plane or even just ride my bike to work.
battery life under my settings (dimmed screen, speed stepped processor) hovers around 4 hours. about what you would expect for a model like this. the extended life battery that bolts onto the bottom brings battery life up to over 10 hours. [note, the extra lift battery is not included with this purchase. reccomended for long distance travellers, however.]
the keyboard and mouse are perfect for day to day use, i've never been happier with a system. i never feel cramed or pained after using it.
not having a CD or floppy drive is rarely an issue, most of us don't use it that often. network shares or a USB drive work well.
all in all a great laptop. it's sturdy, lightweight, and great for travelling or using as a main system.
