Advantages: Not to heavy and impessive battery life
Disadvantages: Touch pad

...General Information: 256 MB DDR RAM, 30 GB Hard Drive, 14.1 inch TFT Colour Screen, Internal DVD/CD-RW Combo Drive, 2 USB, Li-lon Battery. Comes complete with windows XP What I think: Its quite lightweight, as I carry it around every day of the week. It looks nice and the LCD display is reasonably bright and sharp as I can work on it outside but I have to be in the shade, it is not too great though but it works (can not see the screen it the sun at all). Battery life impressed me a lot as it lasts aprox. 5 hours of continuous work. I have watched some films and for small speakers they sound is very good and clear also the picture display is good too.

...I have been setup 30 piece of IBM R50 thinkpad for a new company. Basically what happen is I encounter IBM have thier own software install when the brand new R50 delivery to the customer. The most rediculors things is the IBM software use up 3 GB space which not inluded the Operating system. Which mean this R50 come with 40GB harddrive, user only will have 30GB to use, the rest is software usage. Come to the point of hardware issue. This product come with centrino 1.5 and built-in WIFI. Everything is solid look and reliable. Boot up is not as fast as what you think after all the personal software installation which use for startup program. Make you feel like not a 1.5 centrino product. I do not advice home user getting this laptop is because you will get bored of the look. If you insist to get a IBM. I would advice you to get a T41p...
