The Lenovo ThinkPad Edge S430 is surprisingly quiet, barely audible most of the time, except when loaded with a game or a synthetic benchmark. Even when watching a high definition movie file, the fan noise isn't intrusive.
I love their keyboards too, my boss has one in work (not sure of the model number, but the keyboard is fantastic).
id rather have a less powerful laptop with a great screen and keyboard rather than the latest processor.
I hate the idea of the battery being inside the chassis. never liked that idea.
I like the look of their new carbon X1. I bought the original X1 on your review last time and I think its almost perfect. If they improve the screen on the carbon version im flogging mine off and upgrading to the new one.
WOW, that thing is thicker than the power brick LOL
