XYZ Computing writes The ultraportable "X" line is composed of laptops with a 12" display, Intel mobile processor (a low voltage model in some cases), and very low weight. The current generation product is the X60, which comes in two varieties, the standard X60, which uses a Core 2 Duo processor, and the X60s, which moves to a Core Duo low voltage processor and shaves off a few ounces.

While this is still a very solid system it does not have the upgrades found in the move to the X60 or the Core Duo processor.

"The Microsoft Zune is a typical 1.0 release for the Redmond giant—clunky and plagued with problems—but could it emerge as a big hit and the anti-iPod? ComputerWorld's Mike Elgan thinks allowing hackability in the Zune could thrust it to the top of the marketplace, giving it customizability and enhancing its popularity. While he levels some harsh haterage at the first Zune, he points out lots of Zune hacks already emerging.
