Lenovo ThinkPad T61 gives you eco-fuzzies

Posted in Lenovo, Notebooks by Nino Marchetti on July 10th, 2007

Lenovo ThinkPad T61pLenovo is going eco-friendly with its latest ThinkPad notebook computer. The new ThinkPad T61p is also sporting some other impressive features, making it perhaps worth the $1,814 starting price tag.

The ThinkPad T61p sports a 15.4-inch display and a top cover roll cage for durability. Inside you’ve got enhanced wireless capabilities, Nvidia Quadro FX 57OM graphics certified to the open GL graphics GPU standard, an Intel Centrino Pro processor, extended battery life, Linux certification and a quieter cooling system.

For the green lovers out there this notebook and a few other Lenovo laptops meet the new Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star 4.0 standard. The company says the laptops “achieve up to a 70 percent improvement in efficiency over previous generation notebooks with power management features providing customers maximum energy savings up to 47 percent greater than before.” Sounds nice - but does it still cause toxic issues when it hits the landfill?

    Fantastic! I was thinking of getting a DELL laptop for Linux, but if I can buy this one without paying the Windows tax then I’m sold.
