Well they might not have the most attractive laptop, but there attack on Apple's MacBook Air is clever....

I've worked on one of them and they are no way near as good as they claim.

They take ages to build, and run slowly when they are up and running.

I don't think 2 extra USB ports are going to make up for pathetic performance. Also considering the amount of devices they plugged into the MBA on that ad they're up for a USB hub soon too.

Re:Lenovo fights back 1 Week, 6 Days ago  
FSJ had something about it and a friend who knows I'm a Mac fan twittered the video at me during the week

The Thinkpad used to be a nice windows laptop when IBM owned the brand, I don't see that should have changed much with the change in ownership.

The MacBook Air is a nice machine, but I'm not sure they're as good as some hope - the only person I know with one (I follow his blog) has already had to get the keyboard fixed
