IBM X40 ThinkPad Makes the 'Weight' Worthwhile


Recommended Posts

When IBM first released the X31 ThinkPad in March 2003 it was heralded as the undisputable, ultra-portable, heavyweight champion of the lightweight notebook computer world. Weighing in at just 3.6 pounds and packing a powerful processing punch, product reviewers proclaimed that mobile computing doesn't get much better than this.

That is, of course, until today.

IBM engineers went back to the weight room and knocked another pound-or-so off the popular portable PC. Weighing in at just 2.7 pounds, IBM's new X40 ThinkPad is the lightest and thinnest ThinkPad ever.
