I also need to know how much memory, hard drive, etc. to get. Money is not a problem. What else do I need..card for storing pics, etc. I am new at this! May need to take on flights. Thanks for your help! The best business computer the Lenovo T61 comes in 3 screen sizes Get the core 2 duo t7300 CPU, at least 2 GBs of RAM, 160 5400 HD, and the NV8400 GC.From an NBR review;
Conclusion
The ThinkPad T61 14.1" widescreen notebook is easy to recommend as a laptop for those that want a highly durable system that provides powerful performance while on the go. The new cooling system design works wonders for keeping the temperature of the notebook down below 50C and limiting the need for the fan to run. The keyboard is as excellent as ever, the sturdy build is great, and the new port options are appreciated. I'd like to see a brighter screen option, in strong office lighting situations the screen can appear pretty washed out. Overall though the ThinkPad T61 does a great job of combining excellent usability features and performance, keeping the T-series well established as the leading portable business notebook.

For a real quick-to-learn and decent digital camera I'd recommend a Kodak Easy Share. Some of the decent ones range from $65-$199 and they use SD memory cards.
If they dont please you, get something under 4 megapixels unless you plan on printing these pictures off in sizes greater than 11''X18'' and such. this way you'll save some cash and not lose photo quality. Find something with a great Optical Zoom. Digital Zoom has a tendancy to...ruin would-be great pictures.
For a notebook...that depends on budget. An older version of a Powerbook by macs would set you up if all you wanted to do was share files/pics during meetings.
Good luck! |
