arhh yes, the X41 - the last laptop I had before I went Mac.
I called it my Darth Vadar laptop - strong, sleek black frame, powerful, ugly yet strangely beautiful at the same time.
The problem is the X41 always suffered from poor resolution, and certainly that is true by today's standards. I wield a MBP with hi-res matte screen and 1680 x 1050 in a 15" package used at 2 feet from my eyes is basically like a Retina display.
- litewulf 16y agoI upgraded the resolution on my X61t to 1400x1050 on a 12" display. "Retina display"? Hah.

- tedunangst 16y agoHow did you do that?
- litewulf 16y agoIt used to be an optional upgrade.
- YuriNiyazov 16y agoThe x41 had a basic performance problem - they switched to the smaller, iPod-like hard drives, as compared to the regular laptop hard drives that the X31 had. This was unfortunate - when I had the X31, I immediately replaced the stock drive with a 7200RPM drive, and the X31 screamed for years. Then, I got the X41, found out that the same surgery is unavailable, and promptly got rid of it.
