In that vein, I just got a Lenovo X200s (11", 3 lb, 8 hour batter) that
I'm crazy about.  Ubuntu 8.10 supports all the hardware, as far as I can
tell.  It makes my T-60 feel like a box of bricks.  The X200 splits the
difference between the X300, which is sort of like the Mac Air, and the
Thinkpad line.

A guy I work with has the Acer and loves it, but I don't like it.  I
don't like our creep much either, though.  They're both too small to be
comfortable.  The X200 has a full-size keyboard and seems as fast as my
T-60.
