That appears to cost $352. Wouldn't it be much better to get a used ThinkPad for that amount of money? The ThinkPad would have better build quality and a more powerful processor.

A ThinkPad is a different form factor. The MiniBookX is a 10.5inch lightweight (just under 1kg) machine with a 360 degree hinge (not that I ever use it like that). I've got a recent ThinkPad (running Linux) provided by my work, but it's a bit chunkier and not so good for holidaying.

Makes sense, thanks for clarifying!
