Hi, I have a IBM/Lenovo Thinkpad T60p with a core-duo, it works great.
There is an option in the BIOS
to enable or disable the VT extension. The machine is really great, I
switched from a Dell Inspiron 8200,
a piece of S**t, after having my motherboard changed 4 times, video card
2 times, DVD-CDRW changed once,
HD changed once, power supplies changed once, modem changed once, and
finally they had to change the case
because it broke from having opened it so many times.... Anyways, the
Thinkpad construct and quality is really
good. I recommend it, I had expected it to cost a lot but it cost the
same price as my Dell did. I have a 2GHz
T2500.
