Re: Thinkpad T60

Hi, thinkwiki has a lot info on this subject. Especially about the "always-on" problem. I have now a hp pavilion ze4417ea with the AMD Athlon XP-M, when I scale down to 530Mhz about 70% of the time the fan is on. This is a one of the reasons why I after 3,5Yrs. want to buy an Intel Laptop. A
