Biggest disappointment ever

I bought this laptop Lenovo Thinkpad T410 2 weeks ago and I am completely disappointed with this purchase. It is the biggest piece of junk that I never spent my money. I would never recommend Thinkpad for the following reasons:

1 processing speed sucks - I had an acer and hp before. Both were less than $500 less, and had core 2 duo processors. Acer and HP IS at least 1.5 times as fast was slightly faster than the Thinkpad with i5 560 M processor. What a shame.

2. wireless is a digrace - I added Intel centrino 6200 instead of default thinkpad bgn, for better wireless coverage and speed faster when I'm on my WLAN with 30Mbps plan and 2 users. I'm so disappointed in the performance. This laptop is at least 2 times slower than the HP that I've mentioned before, and same acer was faster than that. If I move my laptop even 6 inches, the signal falls for a few seconds and then resume again. I am very surprised, how can it be called a company laptops.

3 Sceen is difficult to clean. During the presentation, I touched the screen to display the drawings and the strain is still there, even after the use of lotions, cleaning and dry cloth.

4 CD/DVD writer is terribly strong: it's embarrassing, when you write a CD/DVD in front of customers or peers. It is so strong, that it disturbs everyone in the nearby cabins.

5. the speakers are useless - unfortunately, I realized the harder path. Another customer presentation, I had to show them the product you tube campaign and the speakers were not good enough to be heard by the customers sitting 15-25 feet away. The same video was much better on my laptop Dell Inspiron to friends.

There are more things that you vex and you bug to your life. But for the sake of justice, here are a few good features:

1. fast start time awake mode 'sleep'. Within a few seconds he come and you can continue to work.

2 battery performance okayish - up to the range of standard products. Consumes very little energy in standby mode and strategies of good power of Eve.

3 nice Keyboard Layout - good typing but do not like the Fn key instead of the Ctrl key. This change is stupid and unnecessary.

4. light in weight - I wear it a lot and its weight is extremely special for me and many other back packers or passenger.

All in all I EVER recommend it to business people, developers, Designers, students or no matter WHAT BODY. I spend over a grand on this piece of s *, and I'm totally mad. My HP sucked with the battery and heat system but has at least a good performer and machine smooth if put on a dock, this piece of s * is junk and useless.

This is T410, I don't know about the series W or X in the series. W series could be better than that. I would if I could replace it with W510, but don't think.

I hope that we can resolve some of these problems out.

1. The i5 - 560 M is a fast enough processor. By what metric you claim the HP and Acer to be faster?

2. try to update your drivers with ThinkVantage System Update. Also, check if your wireless performance is set to Max Performance in Power Manager.

3. use a damp cloth. fingerprints wipe immediately. A dry cloth tends to mess around.

4 power Manager allows you to set the report level performance/noise to the optical drive. I have mine set to silence, but I never use it anyway.

5. the speakers tend to suck ThinkPads, but with something like SRS HD Audio Labs, you can increase the volume ("perceived" being the key word). Fortunately, some of the more recent ThinkPads 2011 receive Dolby Certified speakers.

---

1. the release of sleep should take about one second. Hibernation takes longer by nature.

2. There are a few tips to improve the battery life. You have the discreet, integrate, or model the T410 Optimus?

3. the button Fn has always been on the left on ThinkPad (AFAIK). You can enable or disable in the BIOS, but the keys will still read Fn-Ctrl. Some prefer it go, some prefer the other.

I hope this helps!

  • Smartphones from blackBerry Torch 9860 restart unexpectedly

    Hi all

    I bought the same BB 9860. It's the biggest disappointment ever
    This happened to me in my entire life!

    When I got here three weeks, it was working fine until the 3rd day of its use. After that, he started the accident and crash again and again to make an automatic restart. I took it to the warranty company that's axiom in the UNITED Arab Emirates, well they format and the same problem still there. Then I went back to them, then they were finally replaced with a NEW one with the new PIN, but guess what... The same problem happened AGAIN! just before now, it crashed six times! and yesterday it freeze completely, so I had to remove the battery.

    Some of my friends told me that the card memory (4 GB) can be
    the problem, so I bought a new one with 8 GB of space but continue to suffer.

    It is proof that the software itself does NOT WORK as it should.

    What kind of mobile phone that will fail you in more than five times a day?

    It's expensive, it's new, I paid money for it, so why I can't enjoy my expenses?

    RIM please, do something, or at least test the software or your phone before lunch in the first place!

    I really have no idea what should I do, take it again to the warranty company? But they already gave me a new! I mean I can do?

    Hi all

    FINALLY!

    The problem has been corrected. For three days, I was so angry so I decided to find the cause of what my BB is restarted. I was trying to hit the phone from different sides, and finally I found the problem. When my BB get a slap on the side of the camera, just restart. This explains EVERYTHING. When I was talking, maybe that I accidentally hit him, when I put it on the table, when I was sitting in the Café, someone could accidentally hit the table and cause vibrations. I had the problem on the video, check it out:

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=cA1E5f-xfHM

    Then I took to axiom and told them on this subject. They were shocked!

    Finally, they replaced the battery, but the battery from the beginning. In fact, when they gave me a new phone for 3 weeks, they gave me with the old battery, which means that the first phone that I bought myself has no problem at all. It was the battery from the beginning.

    I thank everyone for your help and if anyone has the problem like mine, be sure to change the battery

  • RE: RIPPLE and Web works bad-development

    I just need to express here my frsutration and the discontent of the poor attempt of RIM here with the help of Webworks + RIPPLE. It took me almost an hour to try to use the TRAINING tool to try to debug and test my Blackberry app without success. for some reason, I'll have more luck with Android in wave I can with Webworks. It's really a total disappointment, because the way I am able to debug and test my blackberry applications in Eclipse using the Webworks plugin bouncing just me who you have ended the support.

    Its really not worth it in my opinion.

    Frustrated developer.

    That's fine and if it is how the company chooses to address their "a range of developers to service reel" then all the best for them... I compare it to Microsofts IE6 days.

    Nothing that you did not already affects my position and only solidify the fact that this approach seeks to undermine the fundamental concept of serving a greater number.

    The current approach doesn't has not the capacity for development complete which means that we always use various other methods of development in addition to adapt to this new law to give results. While it is understandable that this will take time. In that rhythm always quick change of mobile race... This must be the slowest nonchalant adaptation to the times, I've ever met.

    However, my biggest disappointment comes from the fact that give you the assurance of not supporting eclipse plugins. For a company that MUST have led the way in the mobile race is probably more in mind.

    But back to the point.

    Your statements are valor... I applaud the move of the blackberry to the front.

    My only consolation in this whole situation is... Android (I'm still jump over other platforms)

    Thanks anyway for your ear... that this post should evacuate the suffering and the pain endures as a Blackberry developer.

    I can't say if things will get better if we change; what I can say, is that they must change if they...

  • How to set up my battery Z580 settings to load completely?

    Hello

    I bought a new Lenovo Z580 this last June. Shortly after I started using it, a system message popped up telling me that since I often have my laptop plugged in, it might save battery if I let the system change my settings so that the battery does not charge completely - it would save the life of the battery in the long term, I would be free to change the setting whenever I wanted to. Well, that was the biggest mistake ever. I now basically have an office because I can't find a setting that allows me to change the battery is fully charged (it only charges 40 or 50%). There isn't any mention of this feature in the materials user guide I can find and none of these Options to allow me to change battery charge capacity. Help, please! I'm stuck with a 'portable' new which can barely be unplugged for an hour, and that's the most frustrating terrible adjustment I've ever seen in a computer. Thank you very much to all those who can help you.

    Cora

    Welcome
    The laptop automatically changed the setting for maximum lifetime of battery energy management. To change this, open the GUI of energy management. Then switch to the setting of the battery in order to optimize for the runtime. That should do it.

  • The most recent update of vista

    I was working on my computer a few days ago, and the little thing goes out that there is an update to windows. (I have vista) This is my first and biggest problem ever. It corrupted my id user so all my itunes songs and school papers and locked and I can't get to them. I called Dell and they say I'm out of warranty (I'm trying to find my reciet cause the computer is not the age of 3 years) and basically, they told me that I can pay $100 an hour for them to try to fix or buy a Mac next time! Seriously, they did! I heard many of my friends have similar problems. Dell said to remove the update will not help either. Can someone help me?

    My school work is very important and I have far too much money invested in itunes to make it let go. Seems that my external hard drive does not have to save it at all...

  • Contact form: Thanks but no thanks, BC

    I have a contact form that I created from scratch using widgets in Muse. The biggest disappointment is that it is not an option for the boxes, and to my knowledge, this isn't a feature that was available.

    Here is the form, now, you must enter an "x" in the field personalized, which is more than likely, encouraging the 90% of people do not fill out this form. http://www.urbanedgeliving.com/leasing-contact.html

    I signed in British Colombia and has seen that there is an option to add a Web form, but it seems to be a lot of code involved, and I know not how I would integrate this code with my already beautifully appointed contact form (i.e. I am using Muse because I'm not very good with the code and will not waste his time with HTML all day).

    I wonder if there are any suggestions on how I can integrate a bit without pain a box without having to abandon the form I created in Muse. Thoughts appreciated.

    Hello

    With Adobe Muse CC 20141, reCaptcha and checkbox field can be added to forms.

    Please install our latest update to try out these new features.

  • I am EXTREMELY disappointed in conversion of Sonos.

    I am EXTREMELY disappointed by the outcome of Apple / conversion of Sonos.  What really upset me, now, is that for you is completely useless.  All songs ever.  They play a minute or two and move on to the next and she finishes ever and so on until, after about 10 minutes stops just of transmission...  And yes I installed the last "fix" today who was supposed to address issues of Apple.  NOT.  And no don't tell me my network is watered as Pandora works beautifully.  At this point, I'm ready to scrap of Sonos and get some wireless speakers and run music Apple out of my Mac.  This is quite unacceptable. I don't get no no only error message "the song is not encoded correctly." when I run the error log.

    I've been using Apple music since the beta on Sonos. The same problem happened in October happened to me just yesterday. I don't know that they're going to fix it as soon as possible a lot of discussion about it on Sonos Council too. But really annoying because we love our Sonos.

  • I am very disappointed bike E

    purchase motorcycle E (1st generation) was the biggest mistake. Still no update. I will never buy or recommend to any Motorola phones. Shame on Motorola of the u.

    @Suren,

    Patience is all I can tell you man. Get a stable end but update is better than to do a quick update and buggy. Bike E is the cheapest phone offered by Motorola and still, it is an update. Also, the features of the phone are lower than those of Moto X or G so the update should take more time. They need to develop to specifications below who has our phone. Testing is happening, you can always see on the official site. They are working. Please wait and stop expressing your disappointment.

  • I really wish that I don't have to Deauthorize all of my devices - I am disappointed that Apple does not allow me to see the computers I've allowed and allow me to Deauthorize them individually

    I bought a new computer and you want to authorize iTunes.  Only to discover that you can authorize only 5 computers simultaneously (which is disappointing to say the least in the first place - why the limit.  Also, now I learn to disable allow a computer I have, I have to disable allow all my devices... my iPad, my iPhone, my MacMini, etc..  one of my devices is actually used by my parents in their cabin, and if I disable this one... it's 4 hours away just to reauthorize again... not very efficient if you ask me.  Is there a way to allow MORE THAN 5 arbitrary and if not, then is it possible to allow out of an individual computer to the account - and if not, how many days will take apple to find a way to do?

    I have to allow my iPad, my iPhone out of all my devices...

    No, you don't, iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) devices are not allowed for an account and therefore cannot be deauthorised - only iTunes from the computer are allowed/deauthorised.

    Individual computers can only be deauthorised directly on them.

  • Software updated 2 days ago. He stuffed the speed up to a point, I had to borrow someone's HP to complete a task. Very disappointed

    I updated my software for macbook pro 2 days ago, which has been for his security etc.

    After the update my macbook snaps every minute and the speed it exceptionally slow to a point as I sit for 5-10 minutes waiting to open finder or safari to open. This update plush speed of my macbook. He now works at all. Display and all that remains is very good.

  • Profile corupts itself after I firefox ever single time of exit.

    Whenever I have quit Firefox and try to reopen it, I get the error message that the profile is renamed or missing. I tried to remove and reinstall Firefox, I tried the Firefox update, and I created a new profile with "firefox.exe Pei." Nothing works. "firefox.exe Pei" doing a job that I can open Firefox, how ever as soon as I get out it loses the profile again and the only way to open it is to create a new profile with "firefox.exe Pei." An interesting point to note is that none of the profiles are renamed or moved. Are all where it suppose to be and with he correct name. After hours of research, I am at a loss to know what to do next. If you need more info on the situation or my system specs please let me know. I am running windows 7 pro. Thank you in advance.

    Yes.
    This is the correct file, but the name of the profile (profile / s22fw6ll.default) does not match the profile name kuwddskl. Default user), which shows the screenshot of others.
    If you still have the profile folder that begin with kuw then try to replace the name of the wrong path with the correct profile name.

  • You OWE us an honest explanation about unMHT - when, if ever, worm 8 will be approved and made available through your site?

    I used unMHT for about a year and love it. It's the only way I know to save all comments in the columns of the New York Times while retaining their formatting (comments are indented). I develop comments - often running in the hundreds - place my mouse at the end of the last note arrow and move it upward pointing out all comments, and then right-click in the highlighted area and select "Save selection as MHT.

    I use Ver 8 unMHT of the author's site and it works but assumes that there is a problem, perhaps a security issue, or he would still be available directly from you as in the past.

    The only problem I ever with unMHT is that if I open a unmht file that I saved by clicking it with the windows file Explorer opens in Internet Explorer 11, and there is no way to set default programs in Windows 7 Control Panel to change this. So, I'm going to open the file in the FireFox file menu and navigate to the unMHT file saved. Uninstall Internet Explorer also works. What is a unMHT problem or FireFox? Or maybe it's a Windows problem?

    UnMHT 8.0.0 can be installed from here:

  • Anyone ever heard that apple gives you access to your account since your former employer claims its their?

    I worked in a company 12 months ago. I left, I changed my apple ID and changed it through all my accounts. I understand that the employer wanted to access my old developer account in my bunch of accounts (they have contacted me tho) but contacted apple and pressure that its their account and apparently they gave them access or my password to my account.

    Anyone ever heard this happen. they have been in my account, they did work in my account and his is done out of the India. They claim that apple gave them access.  Glad to hear other points of view. I changed my password but its all a bit weird.

    see you soon

    Hello Clint,.

    Are you sure that you do not have a few e-mail rescue or something related to your former area of work? Which would have been enough to do. I have not heard of Apple to do something like that, but some people are more convincing and Cindy than others.
