The ThinkPad T60 is a laptop that was manufactured by Lenovo and marketed under the IBM brand.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
Hardware
[edit]This sub-line includes the basic T60 and associated p series (for performance; e.g., T60p). While designed and manufactured by Lenovo, the T60 and the T60p still featured the IBM logo on the machines.[7]
The T60 and T60p can be initially ordered with 2 case options (the 14" 4:3 and 15" 4:3 models); the latest lineup includes an additional 15" 16:10 model with another motherboard layout (the motherboard of 4:3 models was compatible between 4:3-based cases).
The T60 is the first T-series ThinkPad to include the Mobile Intel Core Duo "Yonah" (and later the Intel Core 2 Duo "Merom") technology, and the first T-series ThinkPads to come with a widescreen resolution option. This model has a VMX-enabled BIOS, meaning that running fully virtualised operating systems via Xen or VMware is possible, provided a VMX compatible CPU is installed. 4 GB of DDR2 RAM can be provided, but only 3.25 GB would be visible - this was a chipset hardware limitation.[citation needed]
The keyboard for the T60 was manufactured by Chicony Electronics.[8] The top cover of 14" model was made from magnesium composite (the 15" model has a PBRF plastic top cover), and all T60 ThinkPads have an internal magnesium frame.
Accessories
[edit]All T60 versions supports ThinkPad UltraBay accessories (but SATA connection speed of bay was limited prior to IDE compatibility).
The docking station options includes an Advanced Mini-Dock (with 15 ports, include the DVI-D and RS-232 support) and Advanced Dock with additional PCI-E card support (with up to 1x bus speed).[9]
