Express Review on IBM Thinkpad T42 2373
by - written on 21/11/09

I brought my T42 laptop from work as they had replaced the office with new laptops. When buying IBM, I had little knowledge of having used any products. After 5 years of having brought this laptop (already second hand) it has proven to be unbeatable. It just keeps going and going. Friends have brought and replaced their laptops in the 5 years Ive had mine, and its still not showing any signs of packing up any time soon. So much so, I purchased another 2 (one for dad and one for brother) and those 2 are too in great condition. I am pleasantly shocked to see that not all products have to be replaced so soon. Without a doubt, for me IBM are the only laptops to use. On the down side, its heavy compared to the new paper thin lightweight laptops available.

So it is very reliable and works good for business. Besides, it has an independent graphic card therefore the image and video quality is quite satisfactory. The weight 2.4 kg is not very heavy and the LCD ...  Read the complete review
