Introducing My Lenovo ThinkPad P71 In July 2024

Great machine. I love the P-Series ThinkPads. I have a P50 myself, which is my daily driver. I do wish my P50 had an optical drive like the P7x does. I guess I can break out one of my many old school ThinkPads if I need to read a DVD or CD.

There’s some cheap usb to Optical drive cables that essentially let you use those laptop dvd drives as usb optical drives. It’s worth it if you have a lot of old laptop dvd drives like me.
