16-Nov-2007 Gary: Is this an R61i or R61e ? Levono product code NG1A6UK shows on the Levono website as an R61e NOT R61i. Also, the product shots here show the laptop as having only TrackPoint (no TouchPad) but according to the last question posted here it does have a TouchPad. Confused !?

28-Nov-2007 Pham, M: Do I have a Back-up DVD of Vista or Thinkpad recovery DVD with the laptop? If not, can I order from Laptopsdirect?

Easycom: I believe it comes with restore data on a hard drive partition. However we do provide a back up DVD service, have a look at product code RECOVERYDVD

13-Nov-2007 Mark: ...There is no tech spec page for this laptop, so i am trying to compare with a 300 N 200 (TY2BLUK): I understand from the previous questions: This one has no fingerprint reader It does have the "trackpoint" It has 1 G memory fitted (2x512). How many sockets and what is the maximum amount of memory? Is it not available with win XP?

Easycom: Both laptops now have a tech spec page.

27-Mar-2008 daniel thomas: Will this laptop play world of warcraft without any major issues!! iv ben looking for a laptop for ages this seems to be a good price i just want to check before i buy.I hope it does play it...

Easycom: Yes this laptop will play WoW without any issues. Gaming performance increases significantly with laptop price, but WoW is not overly demanding of system specifications and so will not have any issues on the R61i.

27-Mar-2008 George Pearce: You noted that you req' 633mhz RAM here, but according to crucial, the machine will make good use of 800mhz chips too? I've recently recieved this, and ordered a 800mhz 2gb chip for my machine :) -George

Easycom: The memory is only clocked at the speed of the slowest memory unit in the laptop - so if you would like faster memory, you should replace both units. We only reccommend upgrades to the specifications of the manufacturer, as performance parts at increased clock speeds can lead to system instability and void warranties.

14-Apr-2008 BMH: Does this laptop come with a Windows Vista cd/dvd in case it ever needs a reinstall?

Easycom: The operating system is preinstalled onto the machine, and is loaded into the factory settings restore process.
