Easycom: Yes.

4-Jun-2008 zeee: this is IBM laptop rite if so then i didnt see ibm logo can you please bit more specify

Easycom: IBM dont make laptops any more, Lenovo bought the thinkpad brand off them, so you'll see Lenovo's name on them instead. They bought the whole lot, so they are still made and designed by the same people, still top quality stuff.

18-Jun-2008 Adex: How does the 'Lenovo Care Customer Carry-In- extended service agreement - 3 years' warranty work in the UK? Have I got to physically take the laptop somewhere or post it? If so, where in the UK is this place? Is there an onsite warranty equivalent? I would not want to put my business on hold whilst Lenovo try to fix a problem!

Easycom: The carry-in warranty means you pay the postage to send to Lenovo. Alternatives include the Collect and Return warranty (includes postage costs both ways) and the On-Site warranty (speaks for itself). These are available in the Warranty Packs section of the site.

24-Jun-2008 jim: is the graphics card upgradeble

Easycom: No, it's not possible on any laptop as they are part of the main circuit board, not a removable card like a desktop PC.

23-Jun-2008 john: Does this machine come with any software other than the OS.Will software presently used with XP OS work with Vista on this machine

Easycom: Thanks, we will amend the specification on our wevbsite accordingly

27-Jul-2008 tansmurf: Is this laptop under warranty when it is being used in area outside of EU?

28-Jul-2008 AndyH: Can this laptop take 2 HDD's? Also, What is the maximum capacity (320GB?) HDD that this laptop can handle and is it SATA II compliant? If you require XP, is there an additional cost involved? Thanks in advance for your help.

Easycom: It only has one internal hard drive slot, a second one would have to be external. There is no realistic maximum capacity, I'm sure the biggest one you can find will work. Some SATA 2 drives will work through backwards compatibility and some wont, best way to be sure is to use a SATA 1 drive. If you require XP it would have to be purchased and installed separately, as Vista is pre-installed at the factory.

30-Jul-2008 milans26: can i change settings for czech language or czech typing on this laptop?

Easycom: Yes you can, within Windows.

4-Aug-2008 PS: Does this machine come with a recovery CD?

Easycom: Sorry, just UK and Europe for deliverys.

11-Sep-2008 Rich: This Laptop was previously supplied with Windows XP, If I ordered it now would it come with an XP downgrade disc?

Easycom: No, the only machines that generally come with a downgrade disc are the notebooks with Vista Business pre-loaded. This is because the drivers for the two operating systems are the same. Vista home premium requires completely different drivers from XP and so is a lot harder to downgrade.

11-Sep-2008 Rich: Can I buy this laptop with upgrade to Vista Business? If so, How much?

Easycom: Yes you can, see product number 66J-00023 for the upgrade price.

15-Oct-2008 Simon: Can you explain please the specification of the DVD player in this model. I want one with a DVD RW SuperMulti Dual Layer for +/-. Does this model satisfy that requirement? Many thanks.

Matt: From what I can tell, it doesnt, and if it does then Lenovo have failed to mention it anywhere. I would look at a different brand as most other laptops these days will do that.

19-Oct-2008 Anna: I have an old paralell port printer that currently works off XP. Will I still be able to use it?

Matt: You would need a USB to Parallel port adapter cable for it to work.

19-Oct-2008 ian: The product specification indicates a built in stereo microphone but your response to a question on 23 Jul 08 indicates there is no microphone. Which is correct please as it is important for video calls?

Matt: It does have a built-in microphone.

26-Oct-2008 jen2007: Do you provide Windows Vista OEM DVD media with laptop, or is it factoryinstalled? What if i want to reinstall Windows Vista?

Matt: It is pre-installed, if you want to re-install it then you would use the system restore which will return it to factory settings.

29-Oct-2008 josh: I am thinking of getting this laptop very soon. I know there is 20 in stock but if they do all go before i get one is there anyway of ordering one from you.

SteveF: If they have come to the end of line then no.

24-Jun-2008 M Davidson: Very pleased with this laptop however buyers should be aware that the 1GB offer takes up to 60 days for delivery and the laptop is crying out for more ram from the first time you turn it on. I have put in 2GB extra and it's running a treat for me now.
