Computer manufacturer Lenovo, formed as the result of an acquisition of IBM’s former personal computing division, continued to establish themselves as a major player in the computer market by unveil yesterday two new laptops which combine Intel’s Core Duo processors with â€œenhancedâ€ multimedia and wireless connectivity options. The new ThinkPad Z61 and R60 models have respective availability dates of June and today.

The ThinkPad Z61, said Lenovo, offers a choice of 14.1â€ or 15.4â€ widescreen displays, an integrated camera and stereo microphone for videoconferencing, up to 4GB DDR SDRAM, wireless 802.11 a/b/g and integrated wireless WWAN. The lower end ThinkPad R60, meanwhile, includes a 14â€ SXGA+ graphics option, up to 3GB DDR2 SDRAM, a 100GB hard drive and a nine cell lithium-ion battery.

“The ThinkPad Z61 series merges the power and performance of our top systems with the work-life usability of a widescreen display,” said Marc Godin, Lenovo’s vice president of notebook marketing, in a statement. “In addition to building some of the industry’s thinnest and lightest notebooks, we have designed the ThinkPad Z61 to accommodate the wide array of needs business travelers have for their notebook PC.”
