  Review: IBM ThinkPad T40
Mostly because of the change to the Pentium-M processor, the ThinkPad T40 is almost half a pound lighter (at 4.9 to 5.3 pounds) than the Pentium 4 Mobile-based ThinkPad T30 it succeeds.
The ThinkPad is offered in many standard configurations, which can be ordered through the Computer Connection.
For additional durability, the ThinkPad T40 has a magnesium top cover and an Integrated HDD Shock Absorber, which provides a cushion of air to help protect the hard disk drive from the shock of being moved while the ThinkPad notebook is in normal use.

 Review: Lenovo ThinkPad X41 Tablet - infoSync World
The X41 is the newest member of a long and distinguished line of laptops which have always been the favourites of business travellers due to their sturdy designs, and this model is no different.
Well, the standard four-cell battery of the ThinkPad X41 would be hard pressed to last beyond 2,5 hours with average use - possibly a tad on the short side depending on the degree to which a user wants his or her ultraportable to be truly portable.
Also worthy of note is the small and compact charger unit which has graced numerous former ThinkPads - a treat for any road warrior, as is the shock-protected hard drive which is equipped with gyro sensors to halt drive heads in case of sudden drops.
