Veruca Salt

It was January 2008 and Apple released the Macbook Air. Impossibly thin yet with compromises beyond belief. One USB port, no CD/DVD drive, and RAM that was soldered in place. Roughly two weeks after the unveiling Lenovo released the x300. A no compromise ultra-portable laptop. It had been in development for years and Business Week writer Steven Hamm followed the design and engineering teams in the quest to build the perfect laptop… the x300. Given my love affair with Lenovo this seemed to be the next logical business related read.
