My new Lenovo toy
I know how I always mumble about using a netbook. Oh, the screen is sOOOoo small. Oh, the max is 2Gb RAM, too slow for me. The hard disk carries nothing… blah blah blah...
Last Sunday (same lazy Sunday), I went to the shop with intention to get a newer version of my old trusted X60 Thinkpad. I am always a Thinkpad-user. It is so reliable and always easy to manipulate. Also affordable and arm with latest key features you find in other computers.
This tiny machine caught my eye as I stand by the entrance and a quick demo later, I am actually quite impressed. It kind of differs from the conventional netbook I once shunned.
- The 10.1-inch screen can be swivel 180 degrees and fold flat against its keyboard and runs in tablet mode.
- The touchscreen allows me to use the PC without the keyboard. I’m a touchscreen fan.
- 250Gb HDD (why is it called a netbook?)
- Affordable at $949 only
- Still light at 1.25kg with the battery
Ok, am I sold or what? I struggle a bit due to the RAM size and later decide to give this ‘touchscreen’ netbook a try so I went home with Lenovo IdeaPad S10-2t.
My 1st IdeaPad.
My 1st touchscreen PC.
My 1st netbook.
Daring.
