CNET News.com is reporting that Best Buy will soon start selling ThinkPads as well as Lenovo’s new 3000 series PCs/Notebooks. This is in addition to their retail sales through Office Depot.
This comes at a good point, as the ThinkPad X60 and X60s are getting lots of positive press, and with rumors of a ThinkPad X60 Tablet PC around the corner as well.
Earlier this week, Ars Technica published a review of the Lenovo ThinkPad X60 (The Lenovo ThinkPad X60s was reviewed by CNet earlier this week). Just like the ThinkPad X60s, the X60 is powered by an Intel Centrino/Core Duo CPU, and well, it’s basically the same as the X60s with the exception CPU differences and the addition of a fingerprint reader.

CNET Asia has one of the first reviews of the HP Compaq nc2400, the new ultraportable from HP Compaq that features a 1.2GHz Low Voltage Core Solo from Intel. It has a 12-inch display, is just under an inch thick, and weighs under three pounds. As they point out, you don’t get the same power as you do from Core Duo-powered notebooks such as the ThinkPad X60s. As a result, they gave it a 6.3 out of 10.
