Guys you may want to double check that. My old T42p had an access door underneath for easy memory upgrades. They also had the slide out HD tray at the time.]]>Mar 8th 2010 9:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/

Ah I didn't quite put two and two together with the line about the t60]]>Mar 8th 2010 10:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/Mar 8th 2010 12:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://bit.ly/lenovo-thinkpad-t410-updated]]>Mar 8th 2010 1:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/
You still got it wrong. On the T60 you had to remove the wrist rest, not the keyboard. Was like 6(don't quote me on the quantity) screws - not that hard, really.]]>Mar 8th 2010 4:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/
The T4x had one accessible from a bottom door, and one under the keyboard. You usually didn't change the keyboard one because it was already at max.]]>Mar 8th 2010 9:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/Mar 8th 2010 9:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/
Thinkpads are the absolute best laptops to work on. The T41 was the best laptop I ever had. I would love to get my hands on this one.]]>Mar 8th 2010 10:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/
Making it easy is just good engineering.

There is a sort of beauty in engineering that doesn't translate to the type of beauty you are talking about. In other words, if you design something with pure practicality in mind it ends up very beautiful. That is what this is!]]>Mar 8th 2010 10:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/Mar 8th 2010 12:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/
and thinkpads, for the most part have always run cool and quiet which is a lot more prettier than I can say for some, ahem, others]]>Mar 8th 2010 4:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/
On a side note, the X100e HMM reveals that a Athlon/Turion Neo X2 as well as Intel Pine View versions are coming in addition to the current Athlon Neo... check the parts list.

I've never seen a thinkpad without a switchable harddrive. As for if RAM slots being exclusivly under the keyboard, well we'd have to check every thinkpad but I'll venture to say that's nothing new either. I had a thinkpad for 1999ish and even that had a readily upgradable hard drive.

It sounds like their trying to sell their upgrade kit to people by making it seem that you can't just run down to Microcenter. ]]>Mar 8th 2010 11:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/Mar 8th 2010 12:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/
Thats SO ThinkPad-nerd-talky. Nice :)]]>Mar 8th 2010 12:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/thinkpad-t410-has-its-innards-exposed-for-the-sake-of-a-componen/Then went through a T60 with amazing flexview IPS high res panel (last laptop with flexview screen), tried the T61(didn't kept it long) and use X301 which I guess it's not too bad.
