What kind of general media? X61 is still pretty capable at browsing and video if you have the right dependencies/drivers/etc. installed and you stick to lighter software methods.
Pretty much just Youtube + streaming and some mails. I've already got a T14s from work for anything remotely heavy.
It really depends. For me, media is pretty much internet radio, for which i use
pyradio
. I don't really watch YouTube anymore, and when I really need to, I'll just use my tablet.Other than that, web surfing is okay, mail and office work really good.
