Interesting note is that while the X60s was #1, the Lenovo 3000 V100 was #3.

Excellent
This reminds me when the T4X Series was selected as the #1 Desktop Replacement laptop and the R Series the #1 General Laptop, both by PC world; I think PC world got their categories mixed up that one time.

X60s has me seriously drooling, but the last thing I need is another high-dollar bleeding-edge laptop.

Oh, come now, you *know* you want it.
Heck, even *I* want it after trying out an X60 and I can't even come up with a reason to get it in addition to a T61p. (not that that means I am not trying to invent some, believe me.)

Oh I definitely want it, but between the MacBook and X41 I've got no real justification to spend the money.

Did anyone else mistake the X in the picture for a 600 series? That picture with the docking station is not the most flattering shot.

I didn't mistake it for a 600 series, but I will admit that any Thinkpad that doesn't have a touchpad will take me a moment to figure out what series it belongs to, at first glance.
This is one of the things that I like about Thinkpads. They all look similar. If someone is using a Thinkpad, there is no question as to which brand they are using. They stand out. Until the Lenovo laptops came out, you could almost count on any solid laptop being a Thinkpad, whereas with the silver ones....who knows.

Word: Justification....hum....uh.... help me out here. I do not seem to be able to find the word justification in my dictionary....
Whoever's signature that is below is a real Thinkpad Addict!.....

Not a 600, but a 380X. It looks really disproportionate with the X6. I might have to get the new mini dock (when it becomes available for the X60) just to use at my desk.

How could they call the fairly heavy 4.6-lb HP Compaq "ultraportable"? Crazy people.
