Yep folks, Lenovo has decided to try and compete against the MacBook Air with their new x300 ultra-light and ultra-thin laptop. Here is a quick comparison chart between the two ultra-portables:
| Lenovo Thinkpad X300 | Apple MacBook Air |
| Processor: Core 2 Duo Weight: 2.9 to 3.1 pounds Thickness: 0.92 in. Screen: 13.3 LED Resolution: 1440X900 Removable Battery Connectivity: Ethernet, Wi-Fi 3 USB ports DVD drive: YES Price: $2700 to $3000 USD
|
Processor: Core 2 Duo Weight: 3 pounds Thickness: 0.76 inches Screen: 13.3 LED Resolution: 1280X800 Non-Removable Battery Connectivity: Wi-Fi Only 1 USB ports DVD drive: NO Price: $1800 to $3100 USD

Ok, the X300 may be a little thicker, but it has a lot more features, including 3 USB ports, an Ethernet port, and a DVD drive. I think this makes the X300 a much better option for people on the move when compared to the MacBook Air, even if it’s running XP. Business users looking for portability won’t even have to look twice before purchasing this one.
