Will the X301 laptop be phased out of the X series line-up?

The closest design that has come to the original IBM design is really going to phase out?
The build quality is the best out of all the thinkpads made by lenovo so far IMHO.
The rubberized feel inside and out is totally different to the other thinkpads and very iconic of the IBM days.
I would love to see this get a refresh with faster internal components I3 or I5 low voltage...
So can any of the Lenovo staff answer the original question whether the x301 will disappear and be replaced by the T410s? 
If the internals in the T410s were in the chassis of a x301 then that would be the perfect laptop. 
Thanks
T61P - 6459-CTO - T7500 2.2Ghz - 4G DDR2 RAM - NV Quadro FX 570M 256mb - 160G 7200 rpm - WSXGA+ 15.4" - Vista Ultimate 32bit

this is a peer to peer support site, and it is unlikely Lenovo will ever release a public statement regarding the future of the x301 line or whether they are officially phased out.
yes it is a great machine, and it will be missed. Even if there is an update it would use the ULV processor from the i5 or i7 range.

  • When Lion officially comes out from the Mac App Store, I understand that I can just buy it from there. However, will the laptops have Lion automatically? Or does it come with Snow leopard still.

    When Lion officially comes out from the Mac App Store, I understand that I can just buy it from there. However, will the laptops have Lion automatically? Or does it come with Snow leopard still.

    The ones sold that day will come with Snow Leopard most likely but they will be able to get a free upgrade to LIon if they apply within 30 days. Hardware coming through the supply chain from the day of the announcement will have Lion installed so it depends what stock people have to move before buyers see those.

  • Is the W Series being phased out???

    I was hoping to replace my aging T61p with a 17” W Series model, but it appears that the W “series” is now down to one model: the W520. Does this suggest that the ThinkPad mobile workstation line is being phased out?
    I need a 17” laptop with at least two HDD bays to accommodate 750-1K GB SSD storage (e.g, two 512GB Crucial m4 2.5-inch SATA 6GB/s; http://www.crucial.com/store/partspecs.aspx?IMODULE=CT512M4SSD2).
    Should I wait to see if Lenovo releases a W7xxx machine? If not, any thoughts about the new 17” Dell Precision™ M6600 as an alternative to the ThinkPad W Series? (http://www.dell.com/us/en/enterprise/notebooks/precision-m6600/pd.aspx?refid=precision-m6600&s=biz&c...)

    Thanks for the quick reply. I purchased a ThinkPad and a
    Dell Precision laptop about the same time. I definitely prefer the build
    quality and features of the ThinkPad over the Dell mobile workstation line.
    However, for my pro-audio applications (used in live productions), I need well
    over 500 GB ultra-fast storage and the fastest mobile processor I can get for
    my sample-based instruments; plus as many USB ports as I can get.
    Unfortunately, the largest 6Gb/s, 2.5 “ SSD I have found is 512 GB; meaning I
    need a machine with at least two HDD slots. So, unless a fast, 1 TB SSD becomes
    available, or Lenovo releases a W series model with two HDD slots, I will
    likely go with the Dell (faster memory options, more USB ports, etc. compared
    with the HP you mentioned).
    Thanks again!

  • Why will my iPad 2 not recognize any iPod cables? I have tried two different cables in both the wall and in my laptop, but it will not register that it is receiving power, nor will the laptop recognize that they are connected.

    Why will my iPad 2 not recognize any iPod cables? I have tried two different cables in both the wall and in my laptop, but it will not register that it is receiving power, nor will the laptop recognize that they are connected.

    Crizzo is right, the best way to charge is with the included power block. That said, the USB cords are interchangable as far as an of us know. (just not power bricks, iPhone and iPod bricks put out 5W of power, the iPad wants 10W and will always say 'not charging' if plugged into less power than it requires even though it will charge, just very slowly)
    If you have tried to charge your iPad - with the iPad charger - with multiple cables and multiple computers and get no joy then it's time to head to the apple store and have them check it out. The 30 pin USB port can go bad - mine did - and it's a manufacturer's defect (unless there's any sort of obvious damage) and should be covered under the warranty;

  • CUDA laptops, will the 460/470/485-M's facilitate Mercury, not a gamer

    Forumities,
    The reading is making me dizzy, so I'll ask the panel of experts if that's OK?.
    Basically we are shooting h264/MPEG4 codec, and combining NEF stills for small concert and manufacturer clinics. Most recently, Will Ray with G & L Guitars.
    We also have travel DVD's to flesh out, possibly even content direct to broadcast ahead.
    The current machine, is toppling because the Nvidia card has inadequate ram, and I finally assignated cache to the eSATA 7200 drive, not unlike the photo NEF files so it has not crashed since but layering shoals lie ahead.
    It is simply time for a new  portable workstation and the crop in consumer land seems to be using the 460M, which does not appear on the Adobe approved list so far.
    In reading the details around, it might be a better choice to step up to the 470M or 485M because of bottlenecks caused by the dumbing down to suit the prosumer price point, with the 400M series.
    I also might be misinterperting the read.
    Does anyone here have experience with laptop Nvidia for PP5.0.5 and these cards, to achieve a green timeline generally?
    If the 460M is adequate with i7 Sandy Bridge and ample RAM, then that will make a decision easy, otherwise it's a cutom buy out.
    Thanks in advance,
    Rob Manning

    Harm, again thanks for the edification.
    I was perusing the Sager build yesterday.
    Perhaps a better question would be, is there an equivalency, between Nvidia lap top video GPU's and those used in standalone desktops as far as operating all of the functions PP has to manage?
    If so, is there another more robust series besides the 400's to consider for a laptop?
    If not, what would be the tradeoffs, in a short answer?
    I was a seminar last month with Richard Harrington and he had a MAC running the PowerPoint but when he needed to demo the aspects of PP, he'd switch over to a Dell.
    Dell may no longer be offering the Nvidia, perhaps to move those users into their Alien Ware brand, not sure, I'll have to check.
    I very much appreciate your help so far, and if you feel compelled to chew on this further, again, very much appreciated.
    If not, that is OK too.

    Rob

  • X300 and X301 laptop is DVD-ROM the same?

    That is my question. And if they are is it possible to put DVD-ROM from X300 laptop to X301 laptop?

    Hi, johnnykola
    I did some research on Lenovo's website and found these two documents: X300 and X301 system service parts. According to these documents, the optical drive fore both systems is the exact same. So, in theory, you should be able to place one inside the other. However, I have never tried it, nor have I heard of anyone else doing either, so just be aware that it may not work for unknown reasons.
    Hope it helps,
    Adam

  • I will give my laptop to someone else, how do I unlink my apple id? Do I need to remove the apps I downloaded with my id?

    I will give my laptop to someone else, how do I unlink my apple id? Is it just the app store unlink? Do I need to remove the apps I downloaded with my id? Will they get removed when I unlink my apple id?
    Are there any other procedures I need to take into account?
    Thanks

    You need to remove all software that you acquired from the Mac App Store, including newer versions of OS X. These are all registered to you and encoded with your Apple ID in the licensed copy. You cannot legally pass any of the software to the new owner, which is why Apple states to erase the Mac and return it to the version of OS X that shipped from the factory on the Mac. You must also remove any older Apple software that you installed by DVD or pass the DVD to the new owner with the Mac.

  • HT1349 The photo option in ICloud on my computer will not activate (it is grayed out as an option). Any assistance in getting my photos from my incloud on my iphone and ipad to my computer

    The photo option in ICloud on my computer will not activate (it is grayed out) after I load the Icloud download. My Ipad and iphone are sharing my photo  stream photos but cannot get to my computer. I read all the instructions and reloaded Cloud 2 x but again will not activate the photo sharing piece.

    I don't have a Recently Added playlist.  However, I discovered that the file I had named Eating Healthy was given the name You Can Enjoy Eating Healthy when it copied to iTunes.  I'm guessing iTunes pulled the full name of the piece from the internet.  Upshot--the mp3 did transfer to iTunes on all 3 tries, but I was looking in my alphabetized list under E, not Y, so I didn't see it there.  Thanks for your help.

    iPod touch 2nd generation only goes up to 4.2.1, so you'll need a newer generation...
    iPod touch 3rd generation only goes up to 5.1.1
    4th and 5th generation both go up to iOS 6.1.3, wich is the current latest version.

    You can buy Applecare anytime before the 1 year warranty expires, so you could leave that to his discretion if you wanted, and he'd have 1 year to consider it.
    You can save ~$30 on the mini if you qualify for an educational or corporate discount. Office 2004 costs ~$145 with educational discount.
