Hot and bothered by the fact that this article has absolutely nothing to do with the 3G iPhone or what color mock turtleneck Steve Jobs is going to wear for the WWDC Event of the Year.






Oh noes. I have a strange feeling I'm going to get Low-Ranked for this comment. I guess I'm able to see into the future. Please don't ban me.

It looks to me like the SL are going to be the new R, with some interesting twists like flashier designs and GPS (are we sure these aren't Ideapads or 3000 series?) I wish the T's and X's would have GPS. And let me tell you, that addition could very seriously challenge Dell for some big accounts like Xerox for their service techs. Anyway, back to the SL, maybe they're trying to target college kids with this move. They've been trying since the Z and just haven't been able to get it right. I just don't get where the Ideapad is supposed to come in if that's the case.

Anyway, the T's and X's look great. I'm disappointed to not see an X400, but not at all surprised. Here's hoping they have a more cost effective refresh of the X300 around the corner.]]>Jun 8th 2008 11:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/

I love the specs.... but shamefully admit the aesthetics of this machine doesn't appeal to me.

Is the nipple patented? Tried my friend's thinkpad and the nipple beats trackpads. It'd be nice to have them on something like the Vaio ZX.]]>Jun 8th 2008 9:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/Jun 9th 2008 8:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/Jun 8th 2008 9:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/Jun 8th 2008 9:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/Jun 8th 2008 9:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/Jun 8th 2008 10:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/Jun 8th 2008 11:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/Jun 9th 2008 12:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/
Matte black is where its at. If I wanted everyone to notice my notebook, well I'd f**king shoot myself for being some attention seeking wannabe who got a notebook to look cool at the coffee shop. Maybe nobody at a LAN party would like it, but I'm OKAY with that. When you walk into a professional business meeting a Thinkpad is what you're going to want to be setting on the table - not some shinny flashy kids toy. ...and if I'm out an about on my computer its because my pager went off and the last thing I want is some dork staring at me.

The thing is a freaking tool that allows me to get my job done, and I feel it does so in style. I equate the thinkpad to a nice benz or BMW or a nice suite.]]>Jun 9th 2008 12:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/Jun 9th 2008 2:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/Jun 8th 2008 10:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/08/details-surface-for-future-thinkpads-x200-sl-t-and-r-series/

Ok, you do realize that the main reason people buy Macs is so they don't have to use "Ghetto" Computers using crappy, bloated, buggy Windows. So to say that just because a nice looking computer comes out from Lenovo, all the Mac users are going to run and say.

"Oh look, a nice thin light laptop from lenovo. Let me run and partake of the slow, buggy, bloated, drm laden Vista and get rid of my nice Mac." Back away from the bong and get a breath.

I'm sure this is a nice piece of hardware from Lenovo. If it comes with a nice version of Linux and the price is right, I might even consider buying one. But to have to go back into the windows nightmare....no thank you.]]>Jun 8th 2008 10:29PM
