Description:
The Lenovo ThinkPad X300-6477 is a 3.4-pound, ultra compact notebook computer.
Compared to other ultra portable notebooks on the market, it is expensive at around $3,115.
Has Wi-Fi (wireless connectivity) built-in.
Pros:
Has only a 3.4-pound weight, which is somewhat lighter than some similarly priced notebooks.
Also, this notebook has a plug-in module media bay, which is somewhat more favorable than some similarly priced notebooks.
The DVD-Writer is housed in a modular plug-in drive bay, which is more upgradeable and gives you more options than an integrated drive.
Cons:
Has only a 64GB hard drive, which is somewhat smaller than some similarly priced notebooks.
For example, the
ASUSTek Asus Lamborghini VX3-A1
, a 3.7-pound notebook at around $3, 215, has a 320GB hard drive.
Also, this notebook has a DVD-Writer removable disc drive, which is somewhat less favorable than some similarly priced notebooks.
Shared video memory has a negative impact on system performance which may be okay for users with more modest graphics needs.
Users with more demanding needs should look to a graphics solution that brings its own muscle.
Suitability:
Suitable for those who consider weight the most important feature.
Bring along your favorite movies and watch them on your notebook with the included DVD player.
Includes office-grade word processing software -- fine for most serious business or academic writers.
Get status reports while on business trips by using this notebook’s built-in Wi-Fi modem to connect to wireless networks in airports and hotels.
Value:
Despite its expensive price, this notebook has good features for the money.
Suggestions:
(1) Given this device's Wi-Fi capability, you may want to get a
wireless access point
for your home, so that you can browse the Internet more conveniently from any room.
(2) To get the most out of this laptop's Bluetooth capability, you could have a Bluetooth-enabled headset, handheld or other device, and be able to link it wirelessly to your computer within a range of 20-or-so feet inside the same room.
