One of the biggest notebook manufacturers, Lenovo it seems had been designing an all new line of notebooks, but was tight lipped about providing any details of its new projects. However, thanks to a leak, consumers across the globe have now come to know about the all new ThinkPad Edge and ThinkPad X100e series notebooks.
Lenovo it seems has put an awful lot of stress on segregating its upscale line of ThinkPad Business Notebooks and the IdeaPads which are much more targeted towards the users who prefer to use notebooks for more personal use. Along with these two strata of the user base, the ones who use notebooks for their small businesses, Lenovo has stuck to the Edge series of notebooks.
Considering the current usage of notebooks and the increasing competition in the market, the company has decided to keep the prices quite affordable with the starting range of the notebooks fixed at $549. The AMD powered notebooks will be given a Turion X2 L625 (1.6 GHz) Athlon Neo X2 L325 (1.5 GHz) processors, with a AMD Athlon 780G Chipset. These notebooks come with 4GB of RAM and 500 GB of hard disk space along with Wifi, Bluetooth, LAN, Webcam and multitouch features. Microsoft Windows 7 Home and Premium Edition are available with the Lenovo ThinkPad Edge series.
As far as the processor and chipset requirements are concerned, the ThinkPad x100e series will be powered by the same processing units and will be equipped with 4GB RAM, a 500 GB hard disk, Wifi, LAN and Bluetooth. The x100e series notebooks will weigh around 1.5 kilograms and will also feature Bluetooth and Microsoft Windows 7 Starter, Home Premium and Home Basic Editions.
