I walked into a fast food restaurant just a few days ago for a quick bite. As I walked through the doors and looked to the left, I noticed a man with a laptop. I was pretty impressed with the fact that it looked extremely portable.

Upon closer examination, I realized that it was a ThinkPad! A R Series to be exact. It sported a 14.1 inch widescreen. I was so impressed with it that I did a little research. It turns out that the R Series is available also with the standard 15.4″ display. A nice size as well, I was left more impressed by the smaller model, which consequently costs a little bit more.

The 14.1″ model is extremely durable and powerful. I was surprised as well the learn that it is available with up to a 2.60GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor. It is a very affordable notebook as well landing in around the $600 price range. I’m not familiar with any other notebooks that have these unique features at such a reasonable price. It’s a tiny, yet awesome notebook!

I just wanted to put a quick word out that the current Lenovo promotions will be ending soon. Below are the details of the current ThinkPad sale. The offers end on November 25.

If you haven’t done your research yet, ThinkPad Promotions gives you a great overview of the features of each of the  ThinkPad notebooks.

The ThinkPad X Series Tablet is definitely among the more unique laptops. It’s highly popular for it’s flexibility. It’s the #2 ultra-portable laptop according to PC Worlds Top Ten Ultra-Portable Laptops and rightfully so. The screen rotates 180 degrees and can be flipped down to create a super compact working area.

This amount of flexibility makes it easy to use on an airplane or in a class room. It can be rested on your lap and easily used to take notes using its touchscreen and the digitizer pen. A lot of people like it’s ability to easily correct mistakes by erasing them using the opposite end of digitizer pen. It functions just like the eraser of a real pencil.

These interesting features make it a highly desirable notebook for people searching easy mobility and note-taking. It’s great for people that can’t type notes very fast in classroom or conference settings.

The Lenovo ThinkPad X-Series is a very unique notebook. It has quite a few advantages. My favorite is it’s super light weight and compact size. I wish these we’re available a few years ago. I remember buying a huge 17″ widescreen laptop that weighed about 8 pounds. It was a great laptop, but carrying the thing to class as a college student was killer!

It was also a hard computer to use in class. It’s large size made it hard to use on small desks or in crowded settings. It was tough to transport. I went to a university built on a slope and lived at the very bottom. Walking more than a mile with the thing wore me out and sometimes even made my back hurt.

The ThinkPad X-Series pretty much eliminates every single problem I suffered through during those years. It’s virtually effortless to carry and easy to use in cramped settings such as an airplane. I’m not sure how Lenovo made the X-Series so light, but it’s great. Perfect for people who are always on the run.
