Question from Shwey: Asked on 27/08/2008 Hi, with regards to the lenovo accessory promotion on this laptop where u can claim the cost of the accessory back, if i buy the laptop and the Lenovo basic carry case, does it mean the cost is taken off at the time of payment? When does the cashback offer end? Thnx

The accessory is paid for at the point of sale and then the money is claimed back through the Lenovo.

Question from Ian: Asked on 21/08/2008 Thanks for answering my earlier question. Can I please ask if this machine would perform better if I requested x 2 DIMMs instead of the x 1Gb DIMM that it comes with?

Answer from Easycom: Answered on 21/08/2008
Definately, I would suggest this upgrade more than any other because it means that Vista will run much more smoothly as 2gb is recommended by microsoft to optimise Vista

Question from Ian: Asked on 21/08/2008 Curious about what I've read regarding DDR2 RAM working in pairs when system has dual-channel platform. Does the R61E have dual-channel? if not then I guess the x 1Gb DIMM is fine.

Answer from Easycom: Answered on 21/08/2008
It does have dual channel.
It has 2x 667mhz
