March 21, 2008 by Geeks are Sexy | 8 commentsYep folks, Lenovo has decided to try and compete against the MacBook Air with their new x300 ultra-light and ultra-thin laptop. Here is a quick comparison chart between the two ultra-portables:
| Lenovo Thinkpad X300 | Apple MacBook Air |
| Processor: Core 2 Duo Weight: 2.9 to 3.1 pounds Thickness: 0.92 in. Screen: 13.3 LED Resolution: 1440X900 Removable Battery Connectivity: Ethernet, Wi-Fi 3 USB ports DVD drive: YES Price: $2700 to $3000 USD

Processor: Core 2 Duo Weight: 3 pounds Thickness: 0.76 inches Screen: 13.3 LED Resolution: 1280X800 Non-Removable Battery Connectivity: Wi-Fi Only 1 USB ports DVD drive: NO Price: $1800 to $3100 USD

Ok, the X300 may be a little thicker, but it has a lot more features, including 3 USB ports, an Ethernet port, and a DVD drive. I think this makes the X300 a much better option for people on the move when compared to the MacBook Air, even if it’s running XP. Business users looking for portability won’t even have to look twice before purchasing this one.

About the thickness — are you going by maximum width or minimum width?
maximum Width… Isn’t that what people are looking for? How thick it is? :)
I cant choose between the two. Both are edgy cool!
shouldn’t you compare something comparable? like the Macbook Pro vs this, what did ya call it windows thing” ??
Why would you even THINK of comparing it to the MacBook Air? Because you wanted something that you could look better than??? I mean, heck, even the iBook woulda been a better comparison….
Because they’re both ultra-portable…. Apple doesn’t have other laptop in this category, that’s why.
you know that Apple laptops are far superior to your x300.. obviously…
Superior? :)
No removable battery, only 1 usb port, no integrated dvd drive, no ethernet port…
For corporate use, there’s absolutely no question to ask about which product should be chosen.
The Lenovo Thinkpad X300 must have been in the works for a very long time! Cool machine!
