Lenovo announces four new models

LENOVO has announced the birth of four new models, three in its Ideapad lkaptop range, and a new all-in-one Ideacentre desktop which the company reckons will be one of the thinnest desktop computers available.

The A600 will have a 21.5-inch frameless screen and will be less than an inch thick "at it's thinnest point" according to Leneovo. Most of the staff here at the Inquirer are less than an inch thick at our thinnest points, and most of us spend our days sat in front of a computer monitor eating pizza and drinking sugary energy drinks... you get the picture.

Regardless of its heft, or lack of it, the A600 will treat your peepers to 1920 x 1080 hi def visuals, comes with a BluRay option and arrives complete with a remote control and a motion sensitive game controller all for a smidgen under $1000.

The $1200 Y650 laptop has a 16-inch screen and weighs less than many 15-inchers according to the maker. The $830 Y550 has a 15.6-inch screen and the as-yet-unpriced Y450 is a 14-incher.

The laptops should be with us in March whilst the desktop won't be around until April. µ
