Lenovo ThinkPad R400 listed at $200

A few weeks ago, we learned about Lenovo's new line-up of light mobile PCs, ThinkPad notebooks, which promised much in the performance and design meant. The new SL, R, T and X series came with a Centrino 2 platform and "rock solid" design, all in the spirit of the company's line of best business-oriented notebooks on the market. Some of the machines have been tested and reviewed soon after its launch, and marked with the winner while. The ThinkPad notebook x200 received special attention from the public.

This travel friendly machine is considered to be an "excellent light notebook for mobile professionals who require business essentials." The ultraportable mobile PC also comes with a price that is suitable for the performance level that it offers. But while the launch of the ThinkPad x200 was a success, its road to glory seems to have shown a remarkable series of mistakes made by Lenovo. The good news is that mistakes are not connected to the machine itself, but the terms of the manner in which it is stated on the company's website.

Yesterday, it appears that the 12.1-inch ThinkPad x200 ultra-portable got a nice price when a 128GB SSD option was chosen. This option provides for a price $ 70 lower than the standard 80 GB hard drive configuration. The price was at his time at the Lenovo site, and was appealing enough on the set next to 64GB SSD option that was available for a $ 830 premium. Some users have sent their orders during the time the error was there, so we wonder whether the company will respect them.

But this is not all about Lenovo's Web site. It seems that the success of the ThinkPad T, SL, W, R, X-series has led the company in clumsiness. The next mistake that can be spotted the price for 14.1-inch ThinkPad R400, is said to be the EEE PC killer. The notebook was available for only $ 200 Canadian. It seems that the whole price system has messed up, and all starting from the baseline price and ending with the fund.

The company's Web site is probably undergo major changes, because at the moment of writing this article no products can be seen on it. We have tried to make a configuration, but the message "Your session has expired" message as soon as we leave the product page to access any of the series. We hope that this is not another bug, and we are waiting to see how the company will fix the problems.
