The Lenovo B500 IdeaCentre is an interesting choice for a desktop. Gamers may be turned off by the graphics card and that is understandable.

However it could be an attractive proposition for students, working professionals and movie buffs from any category. Adding more soome dollar for a good set of speakers and you've got yourself a pretty awesome wireless command centre. When they become cheap enough to buy on a whim, I will have three of these in every room.

Here are some pros and cons that make Lenovo B500 is an interesting choice for a desktop.
Pros: Space saver; powerful performance; great design; plenty of memory.
Cons: Poor quality speakers; flimsy optical drive tray; unconvincing support stand.

The X100e Is Available In Either The Standard Non-Glossy Black Or Red

The X100e is available in either the standard non-glossy black or red,no matter which colour you choose, the interior will always be black.
 
Your first impression maybe was of the overall high quality feel of the construction, particularly the keyboard, which might be the best ever used on any portable computer you have ever owned.

The x100e's weight, with the battery inserted, is very easy pick up and switch from hand to hand even though the machine feels very solid. The 250GB hard drive is a treat.

Windows 7 Professional is by far the best OS that Microsoft has produced. Lenovo's "ThinkVantage Tools" are much more than window dressing. They provide the user with easily understood, simple to utilize applications that build on Windows capabilities.

When you need help with passwords, diagnostics, controls, drivers, or my favorite, "Airbag Protection", which anticipates possible physical shocks to the hard drive and takes action to prevent damage, Lenovo's added touches are much more than window dressing.
