- stephenr 10y agoThats not the same thing, at all. The only part that's similar is the key faces can change. They're still physical keys that press individually. It's not multi touch, a key can't suddenly become a slider.
- dr1337 10y agoPeople have short memories but the X1 Carbon Gen2 had a dynamic key strip that was so bad that it got replaced with physical buttons in Gen3.
- stephenr 10y agoOr the product is so obscure no one knows what it is? You could have just listed the name of an experimental plane for all I know. Also, if that is true, perhaps what's truly new is that its actually usable. That's pretty much Apple's thing - making things more usable/useful.
- sccxy 10y agoNever heard of Thinkpads before?
- SysArchitect 10y agoOp didn't mention Thinkpad. Just mentioned X2 Carbon Something or other. That could be a jet plane from Lockheed Martin or a Thinkpad...
- stephenr 10y agoX-1 is hardly a unique name for a product, even limiting it to computers. Context matters.
- Ezhik 10y agoDid you just call ThinkPads obscure?
- p1esk 10y agowhat's truly new is that its actually usable The jury is still out on that one.
- acqq 10y agoAlso there, this one 5 years old has its own ribbon and all the keys with pictures! http://img.artlebedev.ru/everything_files/images/2857/optimus-popularis-anon.gif http://img.artlebedev.ru/everything_files/images/2857/optimu...
