Kids have been honing their
computer smarts on Intel-based
Classmate PCs for a few years
now, and Lenovo's just sewn its
name inside the collar of its
second generation of student-
friendly lappies. Based on the
chip maker's "Learning Series,"
Lenovo's new boy comes in
clamshell and convertible flavors,
and brings an Atom N2600
processor, a max of 2GB DDR3
memory and up to a 320GB -- or
32GB solid state -- storage along
to class. It'll launch in uniform
grey (like the first generation
pictured), but orders that meet
the minimum requirement can
choose to splash a little color on
top. As before, these things are
designed to handle the daily
rigors dished out by a nine-year-
old, hence a new rotating hinge
on the convertible, strengthened
and designed to last "tens of
thousands of cycles." Should be
enough to see you into
adulthood then. It's available to
institutions as of this month, but
if you want to know more, hit
the PR after the break.
