| koifish's Full Review: Lenovo ThinkPad 600 X (6005FUK) PC Notebook |
The latest trend in portable computers seems to be finding the most wafer-thin product on the market. As a freelancing consultant in Information Technology, I come cross many different brands of hardware on a daily basis. However, one often finds that what you see is what you get - i.e. very little. The IBM Thinkpad 600x sets itself apart. This is a machine that meets the needs and the style of many users: it is powerful yet light with a large, clear LCD display that is better even than that of my 19" desktop monitor. It has the speed to handle even the most free-wheeling user and it has few hardware problems.
Now for the downside: in today's market DVDs are becoming more popular for the portable user. The 600x simply has a CD-ROM with a detachable floppy drive. Perhaps for the business person who travels (and watches films on his machine) or has children, a laptop without a DVD is not the product of choice. However if this business person wants the cutting edge over the competition, I don't believe that he or she could go wrong with the 600x.
