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. Lunix still chasing MS's tail lights, as usual by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Troll

    Of course Lunix will not support the Tablet features. Since when has Lunix ever innovated?

    All they are ever doing is providing the "God I wish I were Microsoft" desktop wannabe platform. They blatantly rip off features from MS all the time, but do it poorly... and multiple times. Heck, how many text editors does Lunix have?

    Maybe they should focus on getting something like an application installer instead, or a way to make installation possible by someone other than a Lunix guru. Lunix STILL isn't as good as Windows 95. How can they be a viable option for the desktop, when they can't even do what MS was doing OVER TEN YEARS AGO?!?!?!

    In closing... if you want a Tablet PC, make sure it has a real operating system installed on it.
