T400 with LED display weight.

Does anybody have information regarding the weight of the T400 with the LED backlit LCD and 4-cell battery?
I have seen starting weights of 4.5 pounds (on the lenovo site listing all the Thinkpad notebooks although it does not specify which T-series laptop has that starting weight), 4.7 pounds on the T400 specsheet, and 4.8 pounds on the features page of the T-series notebooks.
Thanks

I have a T400, LED display, SSD, DVD burner, 4 cell battery (didn't want the over hang) and it weighs in at just an ounce over 5lbs.
You could get the multibay blank to reduce weught when not needing the DVD drive. I picked up the multi bay battery to extend run time instead and keep the system look clean-

IMac with LED display rather than LCD?

I was in the Apple Store checking out the new LED display and I'm wondering if anyone has heard anything about the iMacs being updated with LED displays in the near future. Thanks.

Hi and welcome to Discussions,
no one except Apple does know when and what models they will release.
And the Tems of Use http://discussions.apple.com/help.jspa here do not allow to speculate of future Apple products.
MacRumours http://www.macrumors.com/ is a better place for it.

T400 WXGA+ LED LCD bad display?

I'm really at the end of my rope.
I've been trying everything I can in the graphics driver settings (both ATI 3470 and Intel x4500, I got the switchable graphics system) to try and make it look better, but nothing I can do is fixing it.
Basically, the display looks washed out and the colors are terrible. It's the worst display that I've ever used to put it simply (granted, the super-cheap Acer that I didn't buy probably looked worse, but I purposely avoided it because of the terrible looking display). It is bright, but that's it really. The contrast and saturation seems completely blown out and what is there looks grainy.
I was really expecting a gorgeous display after reading the review at notebookreview.com. But as it seems in the past, what I got was not the LG display that was in the review, but a Samsung LCD panel that looks terrible. Is there anything that I can do other than return the laptop? It seems very difficult (especially after reading the T61 LCD threads) to argue to Customer Service that the display `looks terrible.' I've used multiple laptops over the years and none of them have looked this bad.
The FRU for my display is: 42X6318 SBB 14.1 W X G A +TFT
I can't get anything to show up through the FRU lookup. According to Everest Home, the display is an LTN141BT. Is this even an LED display? Is the only reason for getting an LED display brightness over everything else? I certainly wouldn't have paid more for it if I knew it would look like this. I can't find the specifications for this panel on the Samsung web site, so it's hard to tell. Could someone from Lenovo give me more information?.

Not that anyone probably cares, but there should be a box on it's way to take my shiny new T400 back to a service center. The only hitch that I had with calling Customer Service is that since I only even ordered the laptop just over a week ago the warranty information for my serial number wasn't in the system yet. Everyone was very helpful and so far I'm really impressed with the service.
I am still really nervous though, because I really don't think that I can use the laptop with this particular panel (or one like it!). My only hope is that they replace the panel with a better one (hopefully the LG that everyone else seems to be getting!). I've been running around checking the colors against every monitor/laptop I can find and it really just looks bad. Mostly it's red; it looks more like an orange. I took a side-by-side picture of a full screen of straight red with it and my old Dell Latitude and you can really see the difference in hue. Green looks a little funny too, although Blue seems fine. The Dell is probably the most favorable comparison I've got, since even it dosen't look terribly great compared to a desktop LCD/CRT.

27inch iMac plate to raise it level with a 27inch Thunderbolt LED Display?

Hi,
I'm in the market for a new 27inch iMac and a 27inch Thunderbolt LED display as a second monitor. Looking that the specs I note that the height of the iMac is 16mm less than that of the LED display.
That being said, I'm not keen to put something cheesy under the iMac (like a magazine) to raise it to the right level. Does anyone know of a plate/stand that might help align the two? Wallmounting is not an option - these need to sit on a desk.
I hope there's something cool to keep with the clean crisp look of the Apple gear. Otherwise I've found a place that sells aluminium plates at 16mm thickness (+/- 2mm tolerance) which may be my fallback plan.
Any advice/ideas/thoughts welcome.
Cheers,
Red.

Yes it will work. This is an answer from a Genius at the Apple Store in London:
I've contacted Engineering and they've informed me that daisy-chaining the new Cinema Display is possible up to two displays on 15-inch MacBook Pros, 17-inch MacBook Pros and iMacs. This, unfortunately, rules out the Mac mini as well as the 13-inch MacBook Pro and MacBook Air. The marketing material on the website will be updated soon to communicate this.

Dual Apple LED Display (24") with NVIDIA GeForce GT120 & ATI RadeonHD4870

I have recently purchased a MacPro4,1 Processor Name:Quad-Core Intel Xeon Processor Speed: 2.26 GHz with 6GB memory with the NVIDIA GeForce GT120. Then I purchased a ATI Radeon HD 4870 to be able to run the 2 Apple Cinema displays and an external monitor.
I installed the ATI in slot 1 and the GT120 in slot 3. I use different motion software and the computer seems to recognize as the primary card the GT120 and not the ATI. This creates a problem with the different software I use as it uses for processing and rendering the GT120 and not the ATI faster card.
This is also visible when I go to system preferences and change the display preferences and try to shift them around, the first display is the one that has the GT120 card (which is in slot 3)!!!
Also sometimes I get funny characters in some windows.
I spent the extra dollars to get an ATI card but I am not using its capabilities which is inviting me to disconnect the GT120 card... but then I cannot use the second Apple LED display due to its Apple's miserable connector policy. This is telling me that next time I should not buy the monitors from Apple as its connectors are not trully compatible with the hardware they sell.
I searched everywhere but cannot find similar cases which is very strange. Any solution friends?

You could remove the NVIDIA GT120 and connect the second display to the ATI card's DVI port with a DVI to Mini DisplayPort converter.

How to switch the Isight webcam with 3 LED displays connected to my MacPro

I have got three LED Apple displays connected to my MACPro. Now the Isight webcam is activated in the right Led display. I don't know how to activate the middle Isight webcam en de-activate the Isight webcam of my right Led display.

How you select among connected cameras depends on which application you are using to operate your iSight. Here is how camera selection works in a few examples:
(1) For iChat, you can choose which iSight you use in the "Camera:" choices bar in iChat > Preferences... > Audio/Video that appears when more than one compatible camera is connected. Although your camera choices will be different, the choices bar will look something similar to the Preferences settings shown here:
If you cannot see the "Camera" choices bar, your Mac is recognizing only one (or none) of your iSights. In that case, consider the suggestions from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
This particular choices bar solution applies ONLY to iChat. Most other applications also have settings that allow you to choose which camera to use. However, they do not all work the same way.
(2) For instance, iMovie HD's camera choice is NOT set via Preferences. When you have more than one compatible camera connected, iMovie uses a drop-down menu choice something like this (depending on which version of iMovie you use):
Note: Because I had no built-in iSight connected when I made this example, and because my external iSight was not connected, the drop-down menu showed only "Time Lapse." Because your Mac has a built-in iSight, your built-in iSight would show in the drop-down menu even when no other camera is connected. Connecting an additional Mac compatible webcam should allow you to choose either camera.
iMove 9 (from iLife '11) uses a different camera choice button shown in this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iMovie/9.0/en/mov39f84285.html
iMove 8 (from iLife '09) is slightly different as explained in this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iMovie/8.0/en/10172.html
In general, you can use your Mac's help for the application in use to find out how to select among more than one connected camera.
(3) Photo Booth in Snow Leopard 10.6.x uses the Photo Booth > Camera menu command to select which camera to use.
Note for readers with older Mac OS X: The previous version of Photo Booth that came with Tiger (10.4.x) is such a simple, basic app that it offers no menu selectable choice. Unless your built-in iSight is already occupied as the camera being used by some open application before you launch Photo Booth, Photo Booth will use ONLY your built-in iSight.
However, you can use the trick from ¶ 4 of http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302781 to let Photo Booth use an external camera.
(If you have an external Firewire camera connected, it may be used in preference to any USB webcam. If that is a problem for you, merely disconnect the problem Firewire device.)
(4) For FaceTime, launch the app and click the Video menu item.
If your Mac recognizes more than one connected compatible camera, a "Camera" section listing the cameras from which you can choose will appear there. Clicking on the desired camera name will let you select the one you want as shown in this image from my Mac Pro and LED Cinema Display:
If your Mac recognizes only one compatible camera, the "Camera" section will not appear in the Video menu, but FaceTime will automatically use the connected camera that is recognized by OS X.
(5) For other apps, see Help for each app for info on how to select your desired camera.

T400 2764-CTO with led backlit. startup or back from sleep, the led backlit won't turn on itself

I have a 4 month old T400 2764-CTO with led backlit.
sometime when I start up T400 or come back from sleep mode, the backlit won't just turn on itself. I can see what it shows on the LCD somehow if the environment is not too bright. Only if I log in and put the system to sleep again and wake it up, the backlit comes back mysteriously.
Is this a setup problem or some defect with led backlit?
I have tried with vista home basic and vista business and both of them have this problem.

Perhaps this might solve your problem (http://forums.lenovo.com/lnv/board/message?board.id=T400_series_ThinkPads&thread.id=9159). I run a T41 under XPPro so am not sure if this is applicable, however I too get a dimming when switching to battery.

24" LED display with MacBook Pro & DVI output

Simple question. Just bought the 24" LED display. then learned that it won't connect to my 18 month old PacBook Pro out of the box. People have suggested many scenarios for solving this seemingly simple problem, but the two leading threads are in conflict.
Some say i need a complete adapter box. others say i can make the connection with a simple MDP-to-DVI connector.
Need more recommendations please. Thanks to all

The simple Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapters are for connecting DVI displays to Mini DisplayPort computers. To connect a Mini DisplayPort display to a DVI computer you need a converter

New MacBook Pro with dual Apple 24 LED Display's?

I am about to buy a new MacBook to replace my iMac (which I have an added 22in monitor for dual displays). I really like the new Apple 24 LED Display (except for the price!) and wanted to know if I can have dual Apple 24 LED Display's running off a MacBook Pro.
If not will it work using the dual-link DVI adapter with a splitter? Or if I want to run dual monitors should I look elsewere (none Apple)?
Any helps would be awesome! My kids will love getting my iMac permanently...LOL.

Given that the stumbling block to more flexible power options is the infamous patent-protected MagSafe connector
The funny thing is, I've seen loads of cheap "replacement" MagSafe adapters on eBay, Amazon and in local shops. On eBay, they cost (new) about $26, on Amazon I've seen them as cheap as $17!!, against the $80 that Apple charges. And apparently, it's not worth it to pursue the matter, it's been going on for more than a year now.
made of pure unobtanium and guarded by packs of rabid lawyers, someone is shooting themselves in the foot by making the power bricks so frail that the secondary damaged goods recovery market grows without bounds...
I really dig that unobtainium reference :-)
What I've found is that the bricks aren't so frail but the DC cord is! Apparently that's difficult to make resilient, with the characteristics that Apple wanted them to have. Out of every ten broken MagSafe adapters I've seen, only two actually have failed electronics, five have frayed DC wiring and three have a broken MagSafe connector.

Using New Apple 27" LED Display with old MacBook Pro (Late 2006) 15"

I've got a MacBook Pro (Model # A1211) Core2Duo 15" 2.16 GHz with only 128 MB of VRAM and a built-in DVI port (I think it is dual-link DVI)
My question is, will the new 27" LED Display work with this machine at its best resolution? If so, what adapter would I need to get it to work?
Thanks!

I don't think the Kanex adapter is the best one to purchase. The information on their website says it will only drive the 27" at 1280 x 720. Although I have not purchased one yet, the ATLONA website http://www.atlona.com/Atlona-Dual-Link-DVI-to-Mini-DisplayPort-Converter-USB-Pow ered.html, claims their Atlona AT-DP400 converter will drive the 27" at its highest resolution of 2560 x 1440. I have read confirmation from some users that this is the case for the DP400.

I have 2 Apple Cinema LED Displays (no Thunderbolt) and a new Macbook Air (with Thunderbolt). Is there a way to connect both of these monitor to my Macbook Air?

I'm trying to use 2 older Apple Cinema LED Displays in a Dual Monitor configuration with my Macbook Air. It is a new macbook air and supports Thunderbolt.

Look for minidisplay connectors/adapters that that fit the inputs on the display, such as this example:

IMac 27" with external Apple 24" LED Display

Hi,
I want to know if is there a method to sync the brightness of the two monitor. Everytime I have to change the brightness of the first monitor, and after the one of the second...
Another thing. All the two monitors (the imac and the external apple 24 led display) have stereo speakers. Is there a program or an option to listen using all the speakers and not only one ?
Thank you.
Alvise Susmel

My understanding is that the mini-DisplayPort out on the new iMacs does not include audio so if you only connected the Apple 24" LED display via mini-Displayport, you won't be using the speakers in the external monitor. If you also plug in the 24" display's USB cable, then I assume you should get audio as well externally but no internal iMac speakers would be active then since System Preferences only allows one sound source/output to be active. I think you know all this. Are you looking for a hack that would allow multiple sound outputs to be active?

Synchronous LED display with digital output

hi,
In the experiment I want to control a relay, so I use the MAX to generate a digital output task and then transfer it to example code in labview as below. How can I amend this code so that when the module ouput 1 there is a synchronous LED display on the front board.
Thanks~~~

Use single sample digital writes inside your loop. Use a shift register to hold the state (T or F) and invert each iteration. Now you can just wire the state wire to a front panel led and be sure that it is sync'd to the digital output.

Customize ThinkPad T400 with discrete graphics

In Customize ThinkPad T400 with discrete graphics,why the Display type didn't have the option of 14.1 WXGA+ TFT, w/ led Backlight, Camera ?
I just want to buy it.

That LCD option is most likely out of stock. As soon as the LCD panel is in stock, I'm sure the option will be made available for purchase.

Want a High Resolution LED Display

Hi,
I am considering of buying a T400 soon, probably this summer. My major concern about the matter is that the WXGA+ (high resolution 1440x900) display is no longer available, on both US and Canadian website. From what I read in this forum, such spec is discontinous, and I am frankly very disapointed. Basically, I consider that as a deal breaker. A choice to make between resolution and display brightness + power saving is a decision I can not make with my conscious mind.
I really hope that the high res LED display will be back soon, and I would appreciate a representitive from lenovo to confirm this.
I heard there are numerous issue related to the LG vs. Samsung LEDs and also the negative feedback on the keyboard issue since the launch of new T400. As the Flagship of the range, I truely hope that the Thinkpad engineering team do not repeat silly mistakes like these to ruin the name of Thinkpad.
thanks

Yes Trevor thats me! I thought that was you! How are you doing?? Great to hear from you :-)
A couple of things as i stayed up late last night looking around.....
I have looked at the Dell Precision M4700 and because its got the older processors & its not as expensive as the M4800 but would seem to work well for me. Im looking for something that is not too high a resolution like 1920x1080 (and even that is pushing it on a 15.6" screen im sure), good viewing angles, lots of RAM, decent NITS, decent sRGB coverage and that wont break the bank. Easy chore huh?
I think with this purchase im going to have to make some compromises and by getting this machine i think i will be ok. Im sure they will probably come out with a high resolution fix the day i get my lower resolution display but hey, thats the way it goes huh?
Im using a very old MacBook Pro right now that is 1200x800 and it is excellent so im sure i'll be fine with a 1920x1080 display.
One thing that has me confused is when i look at Dell's website it states that all of their machines are approved for Photoshop CS6. Kind of funny they would say that if that includes the high rez version no?
Also, they have something called an "optimizer" which i beleive is software that works with your computer to optimize it for certain applications on the fly. It lists it as working well with Photoshop. That would in no way be a solution to the high rez display issues would it?
I even saw a video that had the highest resolution display with Photoshop on it and it looked fine! Did they Photoshop that??
Any insight you can give me before i pull the trigger would be most appreciated. I am getting a Windows machine because i have to run QuickBooks for Windows on it and i dont want to use Parallels or Boot Camp. Just me but i dont like the idea of doing that (i know im wierd!)
Hope to hear from you all soon!
Thank you so much for the great help!
best to you,
rick
