Hardware, Embedded Systems "The recent release of Intel's Centrino 2 platform means a refresh of notebooks from every manufacturer. Lenovo took this chance to not only update the internals of their ThinkPads, but also to make changes to their naming conventions and release a few new models, including the addition of the ThinkPad X200 to the venerable X series." The X200 brings along a widescreen display (the X was the ThinkPad's last standard aspect ratio series), the Centrino 2 platform with 45nm processor, and an SSD option. The notebook is a bit wider than before but still has that ThinkPad keyboard and with the right battery it will last up to 9 hours."

The real problem is the location of caps lock. If it were switched with control (as it is immediately on all my computers), then the fn location is preferable since it's easily found.

The real problem with Thinkpads is the screens, but I'm an LCD geek and my X61s doesn't bug me that much. If it were a T series it might, though.
