The Lenovo ThinkPad X60s was selected as the best laptop in PC Magazine’s The Best Products of Q1 2006.

I’m seeing people present the older Flybook’s specifications as the new Flybook’s specifications. One important difference is the CPU – the older is powered by a Transmeta Crusoe CPU, the new series is powered by an Intel Ultra Low Voltage (ULV) Pentium M.
