Lenovo laptops

If it weren't for the OS and Pro Applications, Pro Mac Laptops would be the worst buy ever- outdated specs, NO BLURAY burning, expensive RAM upgrade...

For someone whose workflow is Mac centric, this p%sses me off!

I don't have it yet, but I just saw on their site that they're having a sale on blu-ray burners for the Lenovo laptops with an UltraBay. $137.50 for a blu-ray burner! You can't buy it after the fact (or else it's $499), you have to buy it with the laptop.

quick question. Barry or anyone, please explain.

Ok, I customizing a lenovo but there is something I'm a bit confused about. The ultrabay, I heard Barry said he could have a second Hard Drive if he wanted. Does that option comes standart or I have to get something for that. I'm ordering the R61 series, nVidia.
I'm getting the blueray burner option...is that the Ultrabay? if yes, can it be swaped for HD? do I need extra conectors?

I just about to click buy but wanted to make sure of this before hand.

Thanks to all of you for very helpful posts. my inexpensive P2 reader became a expensive laptop...how did that happened?

Thanks
 
The R61 has an UltraBay port. The Blu-Ray burner is an UltraBay device. You can eject it and put in another UltraBay device if you want (such as a hard drive bay, or a secondary battery, etc). If you want to mount a second hard drive in there you'd need to buy an empty hard drive UltraBay device to mount the hard disk in.
 
Hello.

I just got my new Lenovo today (R61 series) (p2 offload but maybe editing as well)...I have a very small red dot on my screen...is that a dead pixel? I heard people using that name but I had never seen one before. Is it worthy to send it back? is a pain in the neck to go through all of that..but I think it'll be a bother along the way. ahhhh... don't like this.

does this happens a lot?

my first time.

the pixel may just be stuck. you can google stuck pixels and try some of the solutions people have.
 
Does anyone have a Lenovo Z61m, 2GHz, 100gb HDD, 2GB RAM, or similar? Just curious what your thoughts are. Is it sufficient for capturing HD footage and editing?
