IBM Thinkpad 600 ... 'portable' computer shouldn't make you lean to the side as you carry it. But you shouldn't have to sacrifice computing power for portability, either. The solution? IBM's ThinkPad 600 series, which offers fast processing, large color displays and top-notch multimedia features in a notebook weighing only five pounds.

This ThinkPad 600 contains a screaming fast 300MHz mobile Pentium II processor. There's not a notebook application, business or multimedia, that this CPU can't handle with fluid ease. You might end up with a notebook that outperforms your office desktop system! 512K of integrated L2 cache keep the Pentium II running at peak performance. Your notebook's life expectancy might be lowered if it doesn't have sufficient room for memory expansion. The ThinkPad 600 comes with 64MB of SDRAM, which is upgradeable to as much as 288MB using two SODIMM slots. This prepares you to use next year's complex, memory-intensive software. Likewise, the notebook's 5.1GB hard drive is large enough that you won't run short of storage space for a long time to come. The 13.3 inch active matrix color display that graces this ThinkPad is suitable not only for doing your own work, but for making multimedia presentations to others as well. The graphics controller has 2MB of video memory and can generate rich color depth --65K colors-- at the screen's maximum resolution of 1024x768. The ThinkPad comes with a modular 24X CD-ROM drive that can be swapped with the floppy drive in the notebook's Ultraslim Bay. The integrated audio controller produces 16-bit Sound Blaster compatible SRS 3D sound output. The notebook also features built-in stereo speakers and a microphone, a manual volume dial, and a standard set of audio I/O jacks. Flexibility is important for a notebook's longevity and overall value, and the ThinkPad accomplishes this in part with its Ultraslim Bay, which can ccommodate the floppy drive or CD-ROM drive, as well as an optional SuperDisk drive, DVD drive, and more. A docking station and port replicator are both available for the ThinkPad, allowing you to use it at your office as easily as on the road. And with an included 56K faxmodem, staying connected from remote locations is easy. Use email, send and receive faxes, or do Web research wherever you travel. Get more power with less bulk. Find out the meaning of 'mobile computing' with the IBM ThinkPad 600.

IBM offers a three year limited warranty with this product.

I own an IBM Thinkpad 600 - and I think it is brilliant and am very pleased with it. If you need a one line summary: Go buy one! I am writting this with the intention that someone may buy it second hand (since I don't think IBM sells this model anymore) LCD - Brilliant - no problems. Remember if you have to replace the LCD it is very costly! So check before you buy. Apparently it is easy to swap them with another one! Keyboard - Okay It can be connected with an external keyboard. Mouse - IBM has a ...  Read the complete review

About a week ago now I bought an IBM ThinkPad 600 Laptop computer. It is second hand, but only just over a year old. It cost £500 incl VAT and this is what I got for my money? PII 300 Processor 64 MB Ram 5 Gig HDD 24x CD-Rom 13.3? screen 56K modem I needed a laptop for work, so was looking for something that isn?t afraid of getting carted around. Now, I know that?s the general idea of laptops, but these days they seem to be built to look good and not to be durable when carrying them around. That?s fine if you leave your laptop on your desk all the time, but this needs to be carried around a lot, and in any case, I?ve got the desktop ...  Read the complete review
