Lenovo's $5,000 Limited Edition Think Pad

— September 11, 2007 — Luxury
IBM is releasing a new luxury leather encased $5,000 Lenovo Think Pad. The limited edition laptop comes with a leather cover in which Lenova will actually emboss the owner's name. Luxist reported. "To compensate for the heat of the leather, the engineers created a system to release heat through the sides. The leather also adds a bit of heft. The detail that really gets me about this one is the little antenna that pops up to help improve access to wi-fi networks."

The 12.1 screen IBM comes equipped with a Centrino Pro Core 2 Duo L7500 processor, 2GB of RAM and a 160GB HDD.
