Who likes IBM Thinkpad? - Page 2

No high resolution display?? There are several models in the G, R, and T series that have SXGA+ (1400 x 1050), and some T series come with a UXGA (1600 x 1200) option. Those are pretty high resolutions if you ask me. If you get resolutions those high, widescreen is pointless if your sole purpose for it is to have multiple documents opened side-by-side.

epp_b,
I mean 12"-13" models only. I am not interested in others.

If an IBM model had an x700 or 6600, I would buy that straight away. But, for some reason, IBM uses ancient video cards.

Cause I think that most people who buy IBMs don't use them for gaming

Oh...sorry, my bad. IBM makes their T series in 14" SXGA+ models, which isn't too bad, I suppose.

There are many other uses for graphics cards besides gaming too.
Thinkpads are great machines, well bulit like tanks. Unfortunately they are a bit behind in the graphics department. Untill I can afford a model with the FireGl chip, or they update their graphics cards to atleast a Radeon Mobility x700 or Nvidia Geforce 6600, I won't be buying one.

Most of the IBM notebooks are quite thin; I am not sure if they would be able to cool some of the more powerful GPUs...
