ThinkPad Edge 11
Overview
The Edge 11 is an 11.6-inch small-business ultraportable offered with Intel or AMD platforms. HDMI, optional mobile broadband and Windows 7 made it more than a basic netbook.
Historical context
Intel and AMD choices put this small Edge between inexpensive netbooks and larger business PCs. HDMI and optional 3G/WiMAX gave it presentation and travel roles beyond its 11.6-inch screen.
