    What's the difference? Isn't R61 better than R61i?

    If you look at the lenovo site, the R61i is the same as the R61 except in its offering of processors. R61i sports Core 2 Duo T5xxx CPU's while R61 has Core 2 Duo T7xxxx CPU's. You guys configured an R61 with T5xxx, which isn't possible, so they sent you R61i's. It's otherwise the same exact thing.

    All you had to do was visit the Lenovo site, rather than sitting on your hands going, "Wha? Huh? OMG?!"
