]]> <![CDATA[Lenovo X300 Benchmarked Versus MacBook Air]]> The MBA looks awesome... let's admit it.
The Len has better specs.... let's admit it too

however there are people who would buy a BMW-X5 and some others a Toyota landcruiser! Now whats wrong with that.

Some has serious work considerations and purchases are based on pure specs and the others just want the "cool" looks

From what I've read not only here - but other reviews - MBA seems to be winning

having said that we still don't know if Obama or Hillary will cross the finish line first... do we ??

it is SO a complete sentence.

read it again idiot. he says it scores (meaning gets the score) from all the system components, then lists said components. complete.

discounteggroll

]]> <![CDATA[Lenovo X300 Benchmarked Versus MacBook Air]]> I was reluctant about the air until I saw/felt it in person. It looks stunning, and feels pretty nice when held. I obviously wouldn't go out and buy one (I get issued a new mac notebook every third year) but from a casual student's standpoint, its perfect. Apps open in a snap (safari is up and running before the icon completes it's first "bounce" on the dock)

the 3 finger rotate is bullshit though. I tried it for 10 minutes and failed. I'm not even an ambiturner, when I can rotate (about 1 in every 12 attempts), I can only do it counter-clockwise

ferrdidly

]]> <![CDATA[Lenovo X300 Benchmarked Versus MacBook Air]]> nobody really cares what i'd do. especially not the dog in my icon (that indignant bastard). but honestly, i'd NEVER buy a lenovo cause the buttons by the track pad are just too damn effed up. there's like 20 buttons when all you need is the 2. and i'd NEVER buy the air because my industry (photography) requires you have an optical drive to deliver information to your clients because, let's face it, most people don't know how to transfer data over the web (mention FTP to someone and they just kinda go blank), plus it's still really expensive to move that much data (I'm talking 2 to 3 thousand files roughly 6mb each per job). blah blah blah i only want 2 buttons and an optical drive.

wizardofpants

]]> <![CDATA[Lenovo X300 Benchmarked Versus MacBook Air]]> Give me a laptop where I can drop in a desktop motherboard, and any components that I want. I would pay tons for that.

I can see it now it would have a 20" screen and weigh 15 pounds. But I could do anything that I wanted with it.

I would only buy either of these laptops if I had just won the lottery. They are not that good. You can find a laptop just as good for half the price, and if you have a problem carrying around a few extra pounds then you really need to hit the gym.

Inepsa

]]> <![CDATA[Lenovo X300 Benchmarked Versus MacBook Air]]> The comparisons are fine and dandy but, I don't think Lenovo has officially released configuration specs on the X300.

[shop.lenovo.com]

The 10 hour extended battery (I'm assuming taking out the DVD drive and inserting a battery there also) are pretty sweet though.

I'd like to see the final specs when this thing gets released to the public. I'm assuming they're forcing an SSD because of a lack of availibility of higher spec ULV processors (so the performance equals out). ...if only they'd start playing nice with Nvidia and the mobile 8-series GPU's.

For all we know, this could be a beta display model.

"Part of the reason why the Air did worse in the PCMark05 test, which scores based on all the system's components such as the 'processor, hard drive, memory and OS.'"

is not a complete sentence!

nutbastard

]]> <![CDATA[Lenovo X300 Benchmarked Versus MacBook Air]]> lets test the DVD read and write speed... oh wait crap the air doesnt have a drive builtin .... ok lets test the ethernet throughput... oh crap not that either...

Lenovo is businesses... Air isn't for those 2 reasons alone

]]> <![CDATA[Lenovo X300 Benchmarked Versus MacBook Air]]> @yogibimbi:
there was no perceivable difference for any of the tests giz did, but given that the two benchmark tests Notebook Review used gave such different results, it's not unreasonable to suspect that certain tests do "notice" the advantages of the SSD.

Xenocide

]]> <![CDATA[Lenovo X300 Benchmarked Versus MacBook Air]]> hmmm, in your review of the MBA with SSD you wrote that the speed difference was only marginal compared to the HDD version, if I remember correctly. So, that wouldn't be the reason for the better score of the Lenovo.
