Why didn't they put the headphone ports and the firewire or whatever that is on the side where the DVD drive is? I own a R60 laptop from a couple of years ago and the design is as slick as they come. So it's not the R series in general that is ugly, just a few models that really stand out in the wrong way. Despite the looks these things are real work horses if you need them and I gladly pay a couple of bucks more for good hardware support and such. I run Linux and even though Ubuntu runs a ton of hardware I was always pretty well off with IBM so far.<br><br>One problem though, here the same thing: To heavy, my laptop has a bigger battery and weighs just under 6 pounds, that's not really an option anymore.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[meist3r]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2008 6:17AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo's SL, R, and T series ThinkPads get the data sheet treatment]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/16/lenovos-sl-r-and-t-series-thinkpads-get-the-data-sheet-treatm/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/16/lenovos-sl-r-and-t-series-thinkpads-get-the-data-sheet-treatm/</guid><description><![CDATA[Found a likely typo:<br><br>WXGA+	W/LED Backlight (1680x1050, 129dpi, 200+ nit)<br><br>This from the specs for a 14.1" T400.
