After the announcement of the Mac Book Air I thought that was quite a piece of technology. I mean after all it's world's the thinnest notebook.But soon it became obvious that there are a lot of compromises involved when you become an owner of the MBA. Now Lenovo has thrown it's hat in the ring for the battle around the perfect notebook. The new X300 has the same display size and it does fit in one of these office envelopes as well. The wonderfull thing is: It includes a dvd burner, 3 usb ports and an ethernet port right away. Much better then the 1 (one) usb port and nothing else in the MBA.
