    The Good: High-end components for serious business; internal roll cage protects LCD; 802.11n Wi-Fi for faster wireless throughput.

    The Bad: Baseline warranty lasts only one year.

    The Bottom Line: For business users whose work involves intense data manipulation or high-end graphics, the ThinkPad T61p laptop delivers powerful performance in a portable form.
