My T60 came with a 65W adapter. It's a 14" one
with Intel graphics. 65W adapter might not be
enough for 15" with non-Intel graphics, who might
need more power. I recendly switched to a 90W one,
cause the connector of the other one broke. Can't
really compare the charging time difference, since
the battery is rather old now.
