Hello, Lenovo has a web page with the Personal System Reference links on it. http://www.lenovo.com/psref/
For the earlier Intel processors like the Dual Core, some had Intel 64 and some did not. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Pentium_Dual-Core_microprocessors If you look in the Processor section for your model it will say "Intel 64 Technology" if the processor supports 64 bit. http://www.lenovo.com/psref/pdf/ltwbook.pdf The October 2006 models of the T60 have Intel 64 (T5500, T5600, T7200, T7400). The models with the T2xxx processor do not. 73 Eric > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Michael Geary > Sent: Tuesday, November 03, 2009 11:49 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Thinkpad] Q: Compare experience between 32- and > 64- bit Win7 > > > Interesting...
