"Can we skip the opinions of non-owners and users?"
Pros: Solid, fast, great keyboard, great screen.
Cons: Too many people who have never even seen it lobbing idiotic, uniformed criticism. Get a life. The optical drive being separate is the only possible criticism I can see at this point.
Summary: This is a superb machine. I've had a love/hate relationship with Dell over the years, and in my role at our company, I've had 8 laptops (I use them and pass them along to employees every six months.) Finally, I've got one I want to keep. I'm sorry for those people who think they're going to use it as some sort of multimedia powerhouse, but that's not what it's for. It's for those of us who travel on business but can't leave our work behind and don't want to haul around an 8 pounder. I had a D610 for about 4 weeks and the minute the X1 came out, I passed the 610 to a colleague who liked it, and I couldn't be happier about the switch. Check this machine out before you look at any other ultraportable. Good Luck!

My Dell laptop is dying, so I know I need to start investigating new options FAST. I totally did NOT want to get another Dell, because I hate the customer service issues, as do many people I know. I DO want an ultraportable (not for business, for home use) that also has all those CD/DVD options. I've been edging toward Sony, possibly Lenovo, then came across your comment...mind providing an update since your last post?
