strong.  It has firewire, so you could easily add a FW audio interface.
Jack up the RAM, put a SSHDD in it, and you've got a dang nice computer.
The older Lenovos were business class laptops, so they are built very
tough, and hold up well to traveling.  I've also got an X61 (

photography work.  Really, you can't go wrong with an older Lenovo.

The thinkpad I have, T60, doesn't have a texas instruments FireWire
chipset, making it  inappropriate for FireWire devices in Linux for audio
production.
