I used to own a Thinkpad T-series before I got my Macbook. Being a former Thinkpad user I’d say it was one of the most solid mobile-PC platform I’ve used in my short 20-year career as a computer geek. Now browsing across Engadget I found out that Thinkpad has recently developed a dual-screen laptop in the Thinkpad W700. That to me is great news.

Good news because they’re positioning the product to a much wider user base. These days, almost everyone has a second or third display. I’ve seen people un-cluttering their workspaces to put order in whatever they do. Trust me, it also contributes to the sanity level in my cubicle here! LOL.

Oh, Thinkpad W700 has an integrated WACOM palm rest digitizer and pen. How’s that for icing on the cake!
