Hello, I am not sure what your time frame for a purchase is, but Lenovo announced several new ThinkPads at CES2011 which have yet to ship, including the X220 and X120e. I would avoid the latter--I have the previous X100e model and it is more of a business netbook than a classic ThinkPad X-series--but the X220 sounds like it will be a decent replacement for the X201 series. It may take a while to arrive, though, due to chipset delays. On the other hand, there may be some good deals on X201-series systems in order to move inventory.

To: <[email protected]> Message-ID: <89F83D60A3934BB78919FA5890D849B7@X61s> Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="Windows-1252"; reply-type=original Hi all, I've been buying Thinkpads dating back to the 600. My biggest gripe with my most recent, an X61s, is how hot it gets -- and then how loud it gets when the fan comes on. I generally get thin/light laptops, preferably with no optical drive. I've always liked the Thinkpad keyboard and Trackpoint. Is it possible to get a Thinkpad quality laptop, but with no fan? Thanks, -Scott
