Riccardo MoriVintage computers’ check-up continues. Thankfully, my second-favourite ThinkPad — the X61T — is in good health, as is its battery. I last used it in March, and when I checked the battery charge after booting, the system said it was at 84%. Windows 7 Pro seems to be a good fit for this 2007 machine. Specs: Intel Core 2 Duo L7500 (1.60GHz), 4GB RAM, 256GB SSD. Once again, an SSD makes a difference on machines of this vintage, and reduces battery consumption.<a href="https://appdot.net/tags/ThinkPads" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ThinkPads</a>
