IBM Thinkpad 390x: I Normally Hate Laptops, But Not This One

Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Nov 22, 2000
Pros: Lightweight, Reliable Laptop Computer
Cons: My Version Had the Hard Disk Partitioned Which Caused Me Problems

Summary: Over the summer our office was working on complicated projects. This necessitated our purchasing of two IBM Thinkpad 390x notebook computers for my boss and I to bring work home. Naturally since I'm against the idea of working at home, I really ... read more

solid, well-designed beast

Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Jan 22, 2003
Pros: S-Video output, 2 PCMCIA slots, very sturdy (read heavy) design
Cons: heavy, small screen

Summary: Pretty small. Mine only has 6GB of HD and this was partitioned when I got it. Not so hot. This isn't standard though. I upgraded the RAM to 128MB which made a huge difference. Other than that? Very solid network performer. Built in modem is superb as is ... read more

Beware Win 98 "Recovery Disk"

Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Dec 18, 2000
Pros: Keyboard, screen
Cons: USB cover (fell off), recovery desk, IBM help.

Summary: This product came with the Windows 98 "Recovery Disk", not the full operating system. This means that if you have any operating system problem, your only choice is to return the system to its original state, i.e. with its original files on the ... read more

Great durable laptop.

Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Oct 8, 2000
Pros: durability tech support
Cons: battery.

Summary: I am a network consultant who most definitely needs a reliable laptop. I bought the IBM 390 not because it was "sleek" and "lightweight" which is certainly is not, but because of it's reliability. Most times when you purchase a ... read more

Solid machine, but wouldn't buy one myself

Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Jul 28, 2000
Pros: Big screen, plenty fast
Cons: None really

Summary: My work provided me with this unit and I have to say its a real solid performer. It definately needs more memory than the basic configuration but thats par for most computers these days. I was a bit disappointed that for such a spendy ... read more

Pentium III-450

Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
May 8, 2000
Pros: 14.1" TFT monitor
Cons: Sleep and hibernation are not reliable with Windows 98

Summary: Be aware that IBM has several models of 390X notebooks. First of all, mine was a lot more than the $1699 street price indicated elsewhere on epinions. I paid over $4000CAN for 2626L0U. It is a Pentium III-450 with 64MB RAM, a 14.1" TFT monitor and a ... read more

MIXED OPINION

Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Mar 29, 2000
Pros: Nice keyboard, display and performance
Cons: Little quality problems, Windows shutdown

Summary: We have a number of 390 notebooks. They range from the 390e to the 390x. My opinion is mixed with some cudos and some nays. All notebooks have win98 with 64 megs of ram. Plenty, providing relatively quick performance with operating/software ... read more

disappointed

Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Mar 23, 2000
Pros: well... good question
Cons: quite instable, slow, not high quality at all

Summary: I got a 390x with a Pentium II (is this a Celeron?) 400 and I am quite disappointed. There is Winnt Workstation (Sp6b) on it (and I installed latest Bios Update). With 64 MB this machine was absolutely horrible slow. With 128 Mb it's ok. ... read more
