thinkpad.gifI walked into a fast food restaurant just a few days ago for a quick bite. As I walked through the doors and looked to the left, I noticed a man with a laptop. I was pretty impressed with the fact that it looked extremely portable.

Upon closer examination, I realized that it was a ThinkPad! A R Series to be exact. It sported a 14.1 inch widescreen. I was so impressed with it that I did a little research. It turns out that the R Series is available also with the standard 15.4″ display. A nice size as well, I was left more impressed by the smaller model, which consequently costs a little bit more.

The 14.1″ model is extremely durable and powerful. I was surprised as well the learn that it is available with up to a 2.60GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor. It is a very affordable notebook as well landing in around the $600 price range. I’m not familiar with any other notebooks that have these unique features at such a reasonable price. It’s a tiny, yet awesome notebook!
