Insights Into the Future of the Laptop
An anonymous reader writes "ThinkPad founder Arimasa Naitoh sat down for a chat with CNET.com.au about the future of the laptop. The article includes a few concept design images, as well as details on why Lenovo believes that fuel-cell technology is poor and that Origami will never succeed as a primary device." From the article: "Although Lenovo has traditionally targeted the business crowd, it recently released the consumer-targeted Lenovo 3000 series, as 'many people want to have a ThinkPad that is not black'. Naitoh shuns the use of aluminium in laptop manufacturing, calling it 'weak', instead praising titanium (used in the construction of the 3000) for its light-weight and scratch-resistant properties. Naitoh also showed off a number of ThinkPad concept designs with innovations such as raising displays and removable keyboards. He didn't give any word on whether these would be incorporated into official ThinkPad models, but we've snagged some pictures for you anyway."
Opps wrong site.
I would mod that title down to Underrated Insightful +0 Into the Future of the Laptop.
Nothing is really new it just saying for the most part what we have now will be on the new laptops but it will be better. DUH!!
If something is so important that you feel the need to post it on the internet... It probably isn't that important.
It's a great machine and Lenonvo is affordable and the time to ship was 1 week.
