when i was younger, i had a baby sitter that had one of these. she worked at a school and i assume she came straight from the school to my home to babysit. she would sometimes have the Thinkpad running in my kitchen or dinning room and she would let me use it. i thought it was so cool and i remember trying to pick at the red nub.
Very nice device and good restoration. Several years ago I acquired a Thinkpad X60 running Windows XP tablet PC edition. It runs the low-powered Core Duo L2400. The keyboard is great and it plays DOOM decently. It works as a tablet but it's just ridiculously heavy compared to modern touch laptops.
I would be interested in a vid comparing all 3! I recently got a 1400x1050 x60 tablet. It's my first thinkpad tablet, but its so cool its making me want a faster one haha.
I still have mine that I was issued from brand-new at my work (serial LV-00002), I was allowed to keep it after its useful life was up there and I used it as my primary home laptop for nearly another 10 years, still occasionally use it now, with 8GB RAM and modded BIOS and SSD it's still servicable for basic tasks, runs Win 10 and Linux quite well for hardware thats almost old enough to vote, my original battery even still lasts a bit over an hour!
I had two of these, bout the first one as a parts machine and the second was flawless apart from missing the stylus. They were great machines once you upgraded them to 8GB.
These things are rare? There‘s one sitting on the desk at my school‘s IT room for weeks now and it will be donated to some poor family at my school eventually when they request one, which tbh shouldn’t happen as this is a rare toy and not really a studying device..
@@SimSimsTECHcrunch I have asked if I can get it but I can‘t as I‘ve already gotten an iMac and another Fujitsu 360 degree laptop tablet thing by my school. I have two ThinkPads I can realistically trade in but I doubt they‘d wanna take it.
Vista is a one hell of an outdated os why tf would he install it, even if he's using it for collection purposes its better to install a modern os than use an outdated and unsecure os
@@nnshshwh3966 If its a laptop for collection purpose, an OS that fits the laptops era is much more interesting than a current OS that will be outdated in a couple of years anyway.

There is a extremely small chance that this was from her
Great job finding a X61 at a great price!!! A year ago I found 2 T500's brand new in box on my local classifieds!
Epic video! I got a x220 tablet for free at work, and I use it almost every day. Looks very similar to the x61 and x201 in the video

I have a new-style convertible (Yoga), but these old Thinkpad tablets look amazing. I wish I could get one :O

Wow what a difference between before and after!! Ah the classic Thinkpads were way ahead of their times and still are!!
Dudee that Fallout NV theme got me chills
bro made me think new vegas somehow launched on my pc randomly

Do what you can to get your hands on one of them and grab a newer ThinkPad for them to take instead

That clicking noise sounds like it's from super mario 64
Well done!
i feel like minecraft without any kind of performance enhancing mod isnt even usuable. like it just runs like such shit even on decent hardware
literally its so bad, i remember when 1.13 came out and the performance went WAY down even on a half decent laptop
Delicious machine

L7500 is not for gaming
