IBM ThinkPad X41 First Thoughts Review(X41国外原版评测,图片和数据)
The IBM ThinkPad X41 notebook is a 12.1" screen ultraportable style machine that follows in the footsteps of last years ThinkPad X40 release. Noteworthy for the X41 is that it has a 1.50 GHz Pentium M 758 processor that uses the latest Intel 915GM chipset. So while most ultraportables on the market sport a 1.10 GHz or 1.20 GHz Pentium M, IBM is able to leverage its design prowess to keep this tiny laptop cool while running a faster processor. Decent speed and performance are two things people generally expect to give up when using an ultraportable, but the X41 shows this does not have to be the case.
IBM x41 作为x40的后继产品依然延续了x40小巧和轻便的特点,采用了12.1的显示屏。但让我们惊奇的是它采用了1.50GHz Pentium M758的处理器和915GM芯片组,相对于市场中主流便携笔记本电脑所配置的低电压版的1.10GHz或者1.20GHz的Pentium M处理器来说,超轻便笔记本 IBM的 x41无疑再次占领了先机。一般来说,使用轻便笔记本的用户不的不降低对笔记本性能的要求,也就是鱼和熊掌不可兼得,但x41的出现似乎否定了这一点。
The ThinkPad X41 is built in the same rugged manner as any other X or T series notebook from IBM. Don't let the size of the X41 fool you, it may look cute and small, but once you pick it up and feel the titanium reinforced plastic case you'll understand this is a device that's been designed to take a beating and not just to look suave. There's just nothing chintzy about this machine; the hinges, keyboard, screen cover, case and trackpoint buttons all exude physical quality.
当你看到x41第一眼的时候会感觉它有种娇贵不堪一击的感觉,但当你拿起它感觉到钛复合材质的质感时就能感觉到它的坚固所在。

Design & Build / Overview
The X41 is wonderfully light and thin. The X41 is 1.06" inches thin and with the longer life 8-cell battery I have the X41 weighs 3.2lbs, if you use a 4-cell battery the weight is cut down to 2.7lbs. Even at 3.2lbs it's easy and fun to pick up the X41 and wave it around with one hand, just because you can. Try doing that with a notebook that has a screen over 15" in size. After 2-weeks I still get a kick out of throwing the X41 in my notebook bag and not even noticing it's there, my back thanking me all the while. And all those folks on the subway wonder why I'm smiling.
One thing that is common in ultraportables, but that must be pointed out, is that there is no built in optical drive for the X41, nor has there ever been for the X-series. That's part of the formula for keeping the weight down and the overall package thin. So what happens when you need to load software from a DVD or CD? That's when you'll need an expansion base such as the ThinkPad X4 UltraBase Dock. This dock has a built-in optical drive a bunch of ports, you simply slot the X41 into it when you arrive at the office and away you go. One great option is to have an external monitor and all your favorite accessories hooked up to the base so that when you get to the office or home you slide the X41 into the UltraBase and then start working right away, and while on the road just use the X41 in its raw form factor.

外观:
X41非常的轻薄,厚度仅有1.06英寸。它在重量方面的表现相当优秀,由于电池配备的不同,重量也会有着明显的差异。配备8芯电池是时重量也仅有3.2镑,4芯电池的配备会让它的体重减至2.7镑。即使是一只手将起拿起,也不会有过重的感觉。在x41陪伴我的两个星期中,无论是把它背在身上还是提在手中,x41都给我一中不曾存在的感觉。有时我在地铁上会欣慰的发笑,当然旁人就不知其因了。
对于轻便型笔记本来说,普遍存在的问题是没有内置的光驱,这也是笔记本厂商为了减轻机身重量和厚度设计方式。当使用光驱的时候,外置光驱就是我唯一的选择了。IBM x4系列的底座就是个非常不错的选择。底座不仅内置了光驱,还配备了常用的接口,无论是外出还是在家中使用都非常方便。 |
