The ThinkPad Takes On The MacBook Air 433
An anonymous reader writes "Walt Mossberg has an early look at the ThinkPad X300, Lenovo's answer to the MacBook Air. He says the ThinkPad is almost as skinny and light as the Air, but has many of the ports and features lacking on Apple's machine. The biggest downside: it costs much more and will be limited to a paltry 64 gigabytes of storage. 'Unlike the Apple, which can be ordered with a higher-capacity, lower-priced hard disk, the new ThinkPad will only be available with the expensive, limited capacity solid-state drive. So it will start at between $2,500 and $2,800-up to $1,000 more than the Apple's base price.'"

Gave you a good position to throw the thing from when you realized there was no floppy drive...

I still prefer to work with the PowerBook. It simply fits my workflow better.
I knew that as soon as I saw the original mention of "workflow" that you were a Mac user and going down to the last paragraph it was confirmed. I hope this doesn't come across as hostile... WTF is it with the workflow meme and Mac users? Is it some sort of graphic design jargon that is now "in" among the ultra-hip Mac user community? The rest of the computer world simply does their "job" or follows their "process." OSX users are always going on about their "work flows" and how their computer needs to support their "work flow". Why don't you guys just go ahead and rename it your iJob and get it over with? ;)
