I thought this was a pretty cool comparison to have come from Lenovo (reminiscent of the "Hi, I'm a Mac" "and I'm a PC" days, and more recently, the Samsung and Microsoft ads)...

But still, only two USB ports...

How come these laptops still have the nipple? I mean touchpads are sooooooooo much better in every sense of the word, I just find it weird how they still have them here and there.

If it feels wrong to finger the nipple, you can always just avoid it.

With the touch screen bundled in there, these things have plenty of input methods for getting around.

Simple, choice. That looks like a nice laptop and I hate to say it, but the MacBook Air looks far more elegant and the Lenovo looks abit rough. Not to mention the MacBook will still kill it in sales despite being "inferior" due to people being more interested in having a coveted Apple product then actually having something that can take a pounding and last the distance. If Lenovo could make it looks as elegant as a MacBook (and not get sued doing it) people might start taking notice (computers/phones are fashion accessories these days, nobody really cares if it's actually good just that looks good and the usual "badge snobbery"). That is my opinion anyway, take with a grain of salt.

But the million $ question is: Does the Lenovo run OSX natively? Guess not. Thats why people will still buy the Air.

The "other things made from" is a little unfair. There's been all of one airplane that uses carbon and they put that down, ignoring every other airplane ever built using aluminum, but all Apple gets is a soda can...

hahahaha as if a significant portion of people actually buy it for OSX as compared to for the brand.

That's a pretty nice laptop, but the price came out a little higher than the McBook Air when I configured it.

I'm still a fan of them; they mean no having to swipe back and forth when dragging things around.
