Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 13: Not your Father's ThinkPad


<p>
Lenovo looks to shake things up in the ThinkPad world with the introduction of the Edge. Available with AMD or Intel CULV processors, the Edge also makes some significant changes to the classic ThinkPad design. If you love the original ThinkPad, you will likely be shocked and dismayed with the new Edge line, which has more in common with the IdeaPad family.</p>

As a CULV platform, the Edge 13 we&#39;re reviewing has some stiff competition. Priced at $700 and with few noteworthy benefits, the Edge is going to be a tough sell. The AMD model drops the price to under $500, but unfortunately battery life also plummets, so unless you&#39;re dying for a &quot;Heatwave Red&quot; ThinkPad the Edge doesn&#39;t have a lot going for it.</p>
