It should be excellent laptop. Good to see they kept mat screen. Interesting, does it have spill-resistant keyboard as all other ThinkPads do?
EDIT: It is spill-resistant.
asus has also announced an ultrabook with a 1080 pixel vertical resolution. i'm glad the days of "any resolution you like as long as it's 768" are coming to an end.
Is no one else bothered by the proliferation of the large "shelf" in front of the keyboard, as the prevalent/ubiquitous laptop design paradigm? Combined with a sharp front edge.
I see that it allows for a larger trackpad. But, I find such shelves pressing into my wrists, particularly when I don't have control over the height of the work surface. And that is damnably uncomfortable.
P.S. And as I've stated before, I remain dubious about the chicklet keyboard. A separate concern.
That said, the review was fairly light on content. A lot of 'almost' and 'mostly' but no actual discussion as to what the gaps are!
Plus for an article setting this up to be a comparison to the air... there weren't any actual comparisons!
