"1366 x 768 resolution"

This is where Thinkpad has gone wrong. Business machines should have 3:4 screens. Currently posting from a 5 year old Thinkpad X40, which sports a 1040x768 3:4 display. It's insane that 5 years later the ultra portables are still crippled by that terrible vertical resolution.

They say that they couldn't use them, because no one makes 3:4 displays anymore. Apple and the iPad would beg to differ. Where there's a will there's a way.
