Thinkpad X60 — the Tablet Goes Ultraportable

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the send-review-units-no-return-postage-necessary dept.

Rovi writes "Lenovo had a gift for Thinkpad fans this season- they finally released the successor to the X41 Tablet. The Thinkpad X60 Tablet weighs in at about three and a half pounds and has great tablet functionality. The updates from the older model include a 2.5" hard drive (the X41 used a 1.8"), automatic screen orientation, and an Intel Core Duo processor. For performance seekers some serious upgrades are available, such as a 120GB 5400RPM hard drive, 100GB 7200RPM drive, SXGA+ monitor, or up to 4GB of RAM."

  1. But will it... by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Run Linux or OpenBSD or my favourite, FreeBSD? Can I actually use the tablet features with those OSs?

    Just asking.

  2. IBM versus Toshiba? by Makito · · Score: 5, Interesting

    The X60 looks like a Toshiba M400 without a CD/DVD drive - much like the M200.

    My question is, how does the Core Duo 1.8Ghz Low Voltage CPU performance compare to the standard Core Duo 1.8Ghz CPU in the M400.
