Amazon.com Product Description
Part of IBM's "R" series of ThinkPad mobile computers, the new ThinkPad R40 (2681CU1) Notebook delivers mid-level performance and wireless upgradeability for a price that won't break the bank. Quite compact when compared to the majority of notebooks and backed by IBM's comforting three-year no-hassle warranty and 24/7 support, the ThinkPad R40 (2681CU1) is an ideal solution for those who prioritize portability and post-purchase security.

Driven by a 1.8 GHz Intel Pentium 4-M processor, 256 MB PC2100 DDR SDRAM memory (expandable to 1 full GB) and a 16 MB ATI Mobility Radeon M6 graphics chipset, the ThinkPad R40 (2681CU1) is powerful enough for most standard mobile tasks, including some 3-D applications. However, anyone who wants to utilize the system in a demanding multi-tasking business environment or play high-end 3-D games may want to explore one of IBM's many upscale ThinkPads instead.

The ThinkPad R40 (2681CU1) delivers manageable portability in any environment, tipping the scales at just 6.3 to 6.7 pounds (depending on carrying configuration) and measuring 12.3 by 10 by 1.5 inches. IBM has equipped the unit with a minimal 20 GB hard disk; a CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive for loading your latest apps, playing and burning audio discs, archiving data and watching movies; and a midsize 14.1-inch TFT display screen capable of 1024 by 768 resolution.

Surprisingly, the cost-conscious ThinkPad R40 (2681CU1) is home to many unique and practical perks, including a nifty keyboard-illuminating ThinkLight for low-light situations, a one-touch "Access ThinkPad" online support button, an S-Video out port, two high-speed USB 2.0 ports for fast interaction with external peripherals, and a full-size keyboard featuring IBM's user-friendly ThinkPad UltraNav multi-pointing system. Connectivity options include a low-speed 56K fax/modem, an RJ-45 Ethernet connector for high-speed Internet, email and network access, and wireless upgradeability. Battery life is estimated at a very impressive 6.1 hours under optimal conditions.
