UPDATE: Since this review was written Lenovo has changed the specifications slightly. Under the new part code of NRJAJUK, the SL500 now costs £500 (£575 inc VAT) but features a 2GHz Core 2 Duo T5870 and a much larger 250GB hard disk. This led to a benc...

The ThinkPad SL500 is attractively priced, solidly built and a good performer. Were particularly impressed with the high-resolution 15.4in. screen. However, there are one or two design quirks, the webcam is basic and battery life could be longer.

The lid latch is gone, as is the small keyboard light normally found on ThinkPads. The full-sized keyboard is excellent, with the button response being just fi...
