SL300 or X200 or X61
SL300 or X200 or X61
Help me guys to make my decision.
I am new to the Thinkpads. I have had Vaios and decided to get Thinkpad this time.
I am grad business student. So, I move around classrooms and schools a lot. My priorities are portability, battery life. Of course cost is considered too.
I am looking to buy x61 and then x200 and SL300 appeared. I have read how SL300 is cheaply made. My question: Is it worth to pay over 400 extra for X200 over X61 and SL300. If not how big of a difference am I looking at between X61 and SL300?
Thank you.

I had a look at the SL series and thought it looked very big and bulky, I was looking for something small and light. I do know the X200 will be arriving soon but decided I did not want another widescreen notebook.
I bought an X61 for a good price bundled with an extra 4 cell enhanced battery, 4 Gig of Ram etc etc. Prices are dropping for this model and I think I got a very good deal.

The X61 will last a very long time, they are well refined as the X series has been around a long time. I know I've had several. Currently I'm using an X60s which I plan on keeping for years. The X series was ahead of it's time when first created and remains a cornerstone of the ThinkPad line of laptops.
Cheers
