TP R51 with XP Pro. When I restart the OS, Access Connections attempts an Internet connection before anything else gets launched, like; Desktop Icons, AV stuff, Quick Launch, Sys Tray.
I usually Stop it, but I'm wondering, is the early launch a problem? Does it enable some malware to 'phone home' before all protections is in place? If not, I'll just let it go. If so, how do I get Access Connections to wait until everything else is in place? Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Friday, March 13, 2009 10:00 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Thinkpad Digest, Vol 66, Issue 4 Send Thinkpad mailing list submissions to [email protected] To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://stderr.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/thinkpad or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to [email protected] You can reach the person managing the list at [email protected] When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Thinkpad digest..."

If anyone is interested, let me know off-list or make me an offer - it's a 2623-D8U, pretty much the same specs as there, except it has 3GB of memory in it.

I'm thinking I'd like to run it on my new T61p, only to reclaim the extra gig of memory (I purchased the machine solely for graphic editing). I actually use Vista Ultimate (got a free license from a Windows Mobile UG I've belonged to for over 9 years), and once you tweak it, it's fairly decent, although updates take forever and drivers are somewhat of a pain. The X60 Tablet of course remains at XP Pro. I wish I could make this faster, because when I tried Photoshop CS4 on the tablet, realized I needed a new machine. Any other tidbits about the T61p I should know about, such as the nvidia graphic performance, or is it fairly comparable to the T60p it's replacing?
