Background

About the IBM ThinkPad i Series 1500

Sold 1999–2002

IBM ThinkPad i Series 1500 describes the 15xx group of i Series laptops, numbered from 1512 to 1592 and listed for sale from July 1999 to April 2002. It followed the 1400 family as the mainstream consumer i Series. Processors were Intel Celerons from 366 to 500 MHz or a 500 MHz Mobile Pentium III, with hard drives from 4.8 to 12 GB.

The last two digits of the number indicate the configuration: lower-numbered versions such as the 1512 and 1540 had 12.1-inch SVGA screens, the 1552, 1560 and 1562 had 14.1-inch XGA panels, and the 1592 had a 15.0-inch XGA display. Any surviving machine will need its battery replaced, and the original hard drive should not be trusted with data.
