Operating environment: ThinkPad computers are designed, built, and tested for high quality and reliability. When used properly in standard business environments, a ThinkPad system should be a reliable computing asset for many years. Harsh environments and abuse can damage ThinkPads since they are not intended to withstand extreme temperatures, dust, shock, or other severe physical environments. ThinkPad systems should not be used in unsuitable environments. For example, a ThinkPad system should not be used in non-stationary environments, such as in-vehicle installations, without additional casing or shock dissipation. IBM warrants that the ThinkPad notebook will conform to its Official Published Specifications when used in a suitable physical operating environment.

Compatibility and supported products
Contact your IBM representative for a list of supported features and options.
PC Card
The ThinkPad T41 computer conforms to the PC Card Standard 95, which encompasses both the former 16-bit Release 2.1 card standard and the new 32-bit CardBus card. Other PC card adapters that comply with the PC Card Standard may also function, but have not been tested by IBM.
Vendor software compatibility
IBM tests a large number of commonly used and available applications for compatibility with its ThinkPad systems, using supporting operating systems and configurations. In general, you can expect that most vendor applications designed to run on supported operating systems and Intel-compatible system architectures should be compatible with a ThinkPad system. Some configurations, however, may not be compatible.
IBM does not warrant or support vendor software products, nor guarantee compatibility of those products with IBM systems. Refer to the applicable warranty and license terms provided by the respective vendors.
ThinkPad T41 systems contain BIOS in flash ROM, and a GUI to set up the system and power-management features Windows users. BIOS provides the hardware instructions and interfaces designed to support the standard features of the ThinkPad T41 computer and to maintain compatibility with many software programs currently operating under Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows 2000, and Windows XP Professional.
