Lenovo answered just about every complaint with the MBA... check out the photos. Oh, and it's thickest point is thinner than the MBA's thickest. Yes, yes, the MBA has OS X and it's much sexier, but this makes me wonder which I should be saving up for. [URL]
View 24 RepliesMy new 27" i7 iMac will be delivered tomorrow! My workplace has me use a Lenovo 410 Thinkpad which has Displayport slot (Lenovo - Laptop computers - ThinkPad T Series - Technical Specifications). I am looking to use my iMac as a second display for the Leonovo 410 Thinkpad so when I work from home I can have an extended PC desktop etc. I am under the impression that the 27" iMac supports Displayport input from external Displayport devices so what cable or adapters do I need to pull this off?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI would like to get your feedback about any of these machines if you have tested any of them by any chance. I myself enjoyed using the Vaio TT a lot and it felt very fast in doing everyday tasks. The screen is very crisp and it does not suffer any lines or light bleeding like the MBAs screen. In addition, the keyboard is dead silent compared to the Air's! Please keep your Vista sucks comments to yourself and try to judge these machines based on their performance, specs and looks and simply forget about the OS for now. I am kind of sick of waiting for a problem-free MBA screen so I might consider one of these machines (mainly the Vaio TT or Lenovo X200) to be my on the go machine since the OS isn't going to matter much on the go even though I would still prefer Mac OS any time.

I just want your opinions on which keyboard is better... the Traditional, Thinkpad-reputable Lenovo X201 keyboard or the Chiclet keyboard of the MacBook Pro. I have experience with Chiclet keyboards with the first generation MacBook I used from 2006 to 2007 and the HP DM3z I am currently using since I bought it in October 2009, and am really satisfied with it, but also was really satsifed with my MacBook Pro "classic" keyboard.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've decided that the 13.3" unibody MacBook Pro would be the perfect laptop if only it had a higher-rez display, and I'm sick of waiting for Apple to offer it.
I use 1440x900 on my 15-inch MBP and while I've found that it's (barely) enough to work comfortably, I'm not really interested in the physical size or the obnoxiously-poor pixel density of this machine any longer.
Though it seems that nearly every laptop manufacturer has a raging hard-on for throwing low-dpi displays into 13-inch machines, Lenovo offers a laptop (ThinkPad X300/X301) with an LED-backlit 13.3-inch 1440x900 screen.
Inspired by a long, long read through the technical wizardry in the CCFL-based MacBook Pro WUXGA display transplant thread, I'm terrifically curious as to whether it would be possible to get an X300's or X301's display into a 13.3" MBP.
Will this work if I plug this (or any other third party DVD read/writer) to a Macbook Air? Also, if I purchased a new macbook, can I migrate all previous settings/files from my Time Machine?Â

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi. I need to know whether the RAM in my Lenovo Thinkstation S20 is the same as the one used in the new Mac Pro, as I plan to swap them if I need more RAM at some point.
It uses DDR3, 10600E (1333), ECC, Unbuffered DIMMS.
Here's what Lenovo offers in the all in one category:

For 1399, you get HD, blu-ray, 1TB disk, TV tuner, remote. They claim to be thinner than the iMac. Anyone own one of these?
I am trying to decide whether to buy an iBook G4 or and IBM Thinkpad T-42. I have a relative who works for IBM, so the cost of the Thinkpad is $375.00 (Refurbished). It has 512 MB of RAM and a 40GB hard drive.
View 15 Replies View RelatedMy wife has an old Performa 6300CD she is about to replace with a new Mac (model TBD). However, I use an IBM ThinkPad and need to transfer some old files from her Performa before she gets rid of it.
Aside from the challenge of translating Mac-formatted files and documents to IBM format, the bigger problem appears to be that the Performa seems to be dying. It never had the ability to write CDs and actually stopped writing floppies some time ago. There is no USB port. It claims to have inadequate memory to e-mail the files over, but in fact there is enough space and won't allow me to increase memory to e-mail (AOL).
Is there any way to transfer/transmit files and documents from the old Performa to my ThinkPad before it's too late?
I was thinking, for the next generation MacBook Air, would you want a slightly thicker (thickest part is 0.9in, tinnest is ~0.35in) laptop with a built in Superdrive, more ports, etc, or would you perfer that Apple moves away from this with a thinner computer (0.1in thinnest, 0.6in thickest), but with same limited ports.
I would actually perfer thicker with a superdrive, since I want an air but I want it to be like a MacBook but thinner. What do you think? Btw, this is assuming the regular MacBook does not change in size, since that would sway peoples opinions.
I have a mint condition 20 inch Apple cinema display, to hook this beautiful display to my laptop (Thinkpad SL400) which hasn't DVI output, I just bought a (female) DVI to (male) VGA converter online, unfortunately, there is nothing show up in the display. What I did: 1, try different screen resolution, I believe the native resolution of Apple display is 1680*1050, but still doesn't work. 2. try different OS in my laptop (Win 7 and Ubuntu), both don't work.

I got my Macbook Air connected to the internet, and want to connect my iPod Touch to the internet through my Macbook Air. I saw people using their Macbook Pro to share the wi-fi through their AirPort. How about Macbook Air? As I don't see such option in the Sharing preference, I downloaded the AirPort Utility and it simply says I cannot install it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy Macbook has begun to run incredibly slow, it's taken me almost an hour to post this. Keep seeing the spinning wheel.
Its been like this for about a week and normally doesn't boot, even in safe mode. Appeared to be a gradual thing, was irritating at first but worsened as I took steps to troubleshoot. Initially cleared browsing history and closed programs, to no avail. I then booted in safe mode and the computer remained slow.
At this point the I was unable to shut down without holding the power key, for about a week I've been turning the macbook on and off into disc utility to try and fix it. When booting normally the progress bar usually gets about halfway and then goes nowhere. At one point I could hear dings (messages from my phone coming through) on the laptop but the startup progress bar was stuck at halfway; almost as if it had successfully booted but wasn't showing me.Â
I've repaired disc/disc permissions and reinstalled OSX. I tried to reinstall OSX a second time and an error came up, disc utility also kept showing my hard drive as unmounted and would take forever to let me click anywhere.Â
After many failed attempts this eventually allowed me to startup, allbeit slowly (after a particularly fast disc repair)Â

I recently bought a MacBook Pro and I've noticed that there seems to be a problem with the web browser/ intermet connection... I turn on my Mac and the internet works fine, it's fast and loads everything but then the web pages won't load and the blur bar stops at a certain point and I usually have to end up turning my wifi on, then waiting for a while then turning it back on.Sometimes it doesn't work and sometimes it does. It's really quite frustrating.The thing is, the wifi works fine on my ipod and I haven't encountered any similar problems like on my Mac.
