Re: it isn't a Mac?
That has nothing to do with ripping off the "computer in a mailing envelope ad" that Apple produced. Actually, for a Windows notebook, the Thinkpad looks pretty nice. It's not as thin as the 'Air and I find it amusing they compare the thinnest dimension of the Lenovo with the thickest dimension of the Mac ...

Stupid to copy advertising, and claims of being the most ultra-portable are false. It is heavier and bigger than the Air (both are about the same dimensions, but the the Lenovo is mostly square, while the Air tapers). That does come with added features, like a DVD drive and more mobile commo options, countered by the lower-price hard drive version or backlit keyboard on the Air, or the fact that the Air is faster and has better battery life.
Pick what’s best for you.

They have to force it into the envelope since it’s square instead of tapered.
To: Swordmaker
You would think they could come up with a new idea. Maybe they are purposefully trying to confuse people.

Not a burner, just a standard drive.

What? But, I thought everybody sent their spreadsheets through inter-company mail that way!
