Title: Lenovo ThinkPad X61s
Pros: Solid performance, thanks to the latest Core 2 Duo processor; extremely portable design; excellent keyboard; fingerprint reader; easy-to-use ThinkVantage utility; lengthy battery life with extended battery.
Cons: Lacks built-in optical drive; standard-aspect display feels outdated.
Verdict: The ThinkPad X61s provides excellent dual-core performance in a lightweight, compact package that's still comfortable to use.

Title: Laptop Review: Lenovo SL400
Pros: Low price point, Dedicated graphics card, Attractive glossy cover, Low heat and noise while running, Good performance
Cons: A little overweight, Touchpad Scroll bars need improvement
Verdict: There - in all its glory, the nVidia GeForce 9300M. Paired with a core duo chip and 2GB of RAM, we expected some decent performance out of this unit to make up for its size

Summary: Thanks to its superior feature set, the Lenovo ThinkPad X300 just might outshine the Apple MacBook Air.

Title: Lenovo ThinkPad SL400 review
Pros: Doesn't strip away too many traditional ThinkPad features despite low price point; uses current Centrino 2 platform; antiglare display option; same great ThinkPad keyboard you've come to know and love; optional 9-cell battery provides long life; opt
Cons: Magnesium-alloy roll cage absent; Draft N Wi-Fi not offered; optional 9-cell battery brings weight up to a relatively hefty 2.7kg.
Verdict: Lenovo didn't shed too many features in rolling out its cheapest ThinkPad to date, the 14-inch SL400. Don't let the glossy lid fool you, there are a lot of familiar ThinkPad touches that make it a good bet for business users.
Summary: Targeting the SMB user, the ThinkPad SL400 straddles the realm between business and consumer markets by offering both corporate and multimedia features.

Title: Lenovo ThinkPad T61
Pros: Internal roll cage protects LCD; 802.11n Wi-Fi for faster wireless throughput; very small A/C adaptor adds little to overall travel weight; Intel's Active Management Technology provides remote support.
Cons: New Centrino technology doesn't offer outsize performance gains.
Summary: Lenovo's 14-inch ThinkPad T61 shaves a few millimeters off the company's more mainstream R-series laptops, but still boasts the same, solid ThinkPad DNA along with IT-friendly features by way of Intel's new Centrino Pro platform.
