Ugh. I've held out hope for the P1 since it's the only Thinkpad model with a larger screen and a proper centered keyboard...

That said, there's still no AMD option, the "upgradeable" RAM isn't available anywhere yet, it's still going to require a large proprietary charger because of the power hungry Intel/Nvidia components, as someone else already mentioned if it's the latest Intel, why no TB5?... And they ditched the physical buttons?!?!

So much for there being any decent thinkpads with a screen larger than 14 inches around anymore.

Is it possible to disable the Nvidia GPU and still use external displays? Or, in other words, are the external display connectors still wired to the discrete Nvidia GPU?  Nvidia and Optimus are a horrible pain in Linux.

But HBM3e is solved by memory soldered on the board in the amount of at least 16GB, with a bandwidth of at least 500GB/s.

Do you even know what CAMM is ? It's litteraly upgradable soldered memory. It uses less space than so-dimm and less power (It's lpddr5(x)) is as upgradable as so-dimm. While the costs will probably be higher, it will go down once it's properly used by all manufacturers, just like sata vs nvme ssds.

Compared to me, you have never woken up from a comatose state in your life.

Still has a proprietary charger to haul around, or can it charge via USB now?

Quote from: NikoB on April 24, 2024, 13:56:10In fact, the new modules have only one task (as proven by tests of the poor performance of the new modules) - to make it impossible to independently upgrade with cheap memory from retail with a 5-10 year warranty, instead of 3-6 times inflated at the price set from the factory (like ssd ). Because the entire module will have to be replaced and they are not on sale anywhere, especially with higher capacity.

This topic will only be successful with the connivance of the corrupt antimonopoly authorities of all Western countries. Because the introduction of such modules is obviously an oligopolistic conspiracy of large manufacturers. And these modules do not provide any real benefits to laptop buyers, only increased costs.

So it's slower than the Gen 6 which could be configured with an RTX 4090 / RTX 5000?

I hope this is a render and they re-instate the psysical left, middle and right mouse buttons above the trackpad. Very useful to speed up tedious tasks and I also use the keyboard left mouse button alot when doing precise CAD work so I can concentrate on precision mouse or tablet accuracy.

No kidding! Where's the TBx/Oculink ports?

They ARE claiming just about everything else here...

All great and awesome EXCEPT no Thunderbolt 5. Like why, lol?
