Ted Lynch writing over at Notebook Review has posted his review of the 14” Lenovo ThinkPad R60 notebook PC. 'For your consideration is a review of my recently acquired 14” Lenovo ThinkPad R60. The R60 comes in 14 or 15” screen sizes. It is designed to be a more wallet friendly business class notebook, but if you get all the options it can get quite expensive. The R60 lacks the rock star status of the T series ThinkPads even though they share a lot of parts. It's sort of the Rodney Dangerfield of the ThinkPad line – no respect. I think the R60 offers great value for someone on a tight budget who wants a well built and serviced notebook. The R60 is not a perfect notebook, but has many admirable qualities and a few blemishes, all of which we will get into in more detail in the review.

When you buy a ThinkPad, you should pretty much know what you are getting as they tend not to change a whole lot from one year to the next. It will be black and sort of boxy regardless of the model. I had the opportunity to work on a ThinkPad R31 not too long ago, it looked almost the same as the R60 save for the coloring on a few of the buttons and the addition of the Windows key. I personally happen to like black notebooks. The dark color and squared edges are simple and elegant for my tastes anyway. '
