All models in the company's popular ThinkPad 560 series are now available with 133-MHz Pentium processors, up to 2.1GB of hard disk capacity, and support for Sound Blaster Pro audio applications, said IBM. Prices start at $2,699.

Both models are equipped with Netscape's Navigator Web browser and Lotus Smart Suite software.
