At about 3lbs and 1″ thick, the Lenovo X300 13.3″ ultraportable laptop designed along the same lines as the Macbook Air.  The inclusion of a DVD burner is going to make a lot of people prefer Lenovo’s model to the Air, the Intel Core 2 Duo SL7100 and 64GB SSD just make the deal sweeter.  Think Computers was very happy to see that the keyboard remains the same as on other larger Lenovo laptops, preferable to the shrunken, flexible keyboard some ultraportables possess.

“The word ultraportable has been put into our vocabulary the past few years with every major laptop manufacturer coming out with a laptop deemed “ultraportable”. Apple really took the ultraportable realm to the next level with the Macbook Air, the thinnest notebook ever created and at only 3 pounds it definitely impressed many people. Lenovo wanted to give business users a ThinkPad that was also thin and light. They came up with the X300, a 13.3-inch notebook that is less than an inch thick and weighs around 3lbs. Let’s take a look and see if this is the ultraportable for you.”
