Thinkpad TransNote and possible solution to avoid listing all models
This is another notable model that is unique for its time. See http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:TransNote It should be in the list for historical purposes.

I am mentioning it here instead of adding it to the page because of the concern that the page is turning into a product brochure.

We could summarise all the models under production lines. Each with a couple of sentences describing its unique positioning, followed by notable models as needed (but not list all models.) If particular models are noteworthy they can be described in a separate article where detail technical specifications can be shown.

Eg:

T Series (2000-current)

Mainstream business and performance line with user-upgradeable and serviceable components and larger batteries.

T Series with "s" suffix (2000-current)

Thinner and lighter variants of the T models with less RAM and smaller batteries.

T Series with "p" suffix (2000-current)

Professional variants of the T models with more powerful CPUs, higher capacity memory and storage, and discrete GPUs.

P52, T490 and P15 seem too new for having been used on Shuttle missions.
I noticed that the P52, T490 and P15 were listed under "ThinkPad models used on Shuttle missions include:" without citations. The last Space Shuttle flight was in 2011, while these three models were released later: the P52 in 2015, the T490 in 2019 and the P15 in 2021. Therefore, I am asking to review these entries.

Laptop weight scale
Is a mess. So many questions. 68.117.48.13 (talk) 15:48, 30 October 2022 (UTC)


 * 29 classes? Each listed twice? 68.117.48.13 (talk) 18:18, 6 December 2022 (UTC)

At least some of the weights appear to have been originally in lbs but taken as a weight in kg, then converted, then taken and somehow converted again so that the final weight in kg is almost four times what it should be. E.g.: the T14s is actually about 3.3 lbs or 1.5 kg. It is reported as 5.5 kg or 12 lbs, nearly 4 times what it should be. The X1 Yoga is reported at an absurd 53 lbs! Unless someone can fix this with reliable numbers, I'll have to delete the column in a few weeks, as it otherwise creates the impression that Thinkpads are the world's heaviest (and most unlikely) laptops.

Proposed merge of Lenovo ThinkPad Stack into ThinkPad
This already seems to include all the relevant information, and I don't see a need to break this up into a separate article. 1234qwer1234qwer4 00:10, 14 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Oppose I think this computer is notable and it could be expanded a bit more. I would like to have more ThinkPad series to be separate and have the main ThinkPad article a bit trimmed down in the future. PhotographyEdits (talk) 12:45, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Support merge on the grounds of short text, overlap and context. The two sentence at Lenovo ThinkPad Stack are entirely redundant given the better-developed ThinkPad. Klbrain (talk) 06:40, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
