Lenovo has just stepped up its ThinkPad X201, which will now come packed with a Core i5 and i7 processors. The good thing though is that this laptop’s slim and sleek body did not change even though the processor has been updated.

Also an upgrade from the ThinkPad X200, this device adds a trackpad where the nub left off. Now, it has a 2-megapixel camera with improved low light performance and it also boots up in mere 20 seconds and shuts down in just five seconds. That’s about 50-percent improvement than other laptops.

However, it does not have a USB 3.0 port although it packs three USB 2.0 ports. It also does…

Acer has come up with this netbook that is allegedly the first of its kind to carry NVIDIA’s Ion 2 graphics for 1080p playback. It claims that it is also suitable with 3D gaming, although why you would want 3D in a netbook is simply beyond me.
