| Lenovo ThinkPads Receive an Overhaul |
Several of the ThinkPad notebook models from Lenovo are getting a variety of new features soon. Lenovo announced recently that all ThinkPad 60 series laptops will come with biometric security options, including Ultimaco's SafeGuard Easy 4.30 software to support biometric hard drive encryption. These laptops will be able to encrypt and decrypt files and manage your passwords using only your fingerprint. It's surprising that biometrics haven't gotten a wider acceptance, especially since fingerprint scanners aren't that expensive. In addition, the T60, T60p, R60, R60e, X60, Z61t, Z61p, and Z61e will be featuring new Core 2 Duo processors for increased performance and more energy-efficient computing. All of those models, minus the Z61e, plus the X60s, will also have the option of draft-N wireless support. Given that 802.11n might take a while to get a final standard, there's no way to tell whether or not this can be upgraded to the actual wireless-N until we get more information. Pricing is not yet available, but these features are supposed to be out by the end of the month, so we'll see. Check out the original article here.
