Lenovo has updated a bunch of their notebooks today and first up is what see above - the IdeaPad Z Series. This notebook comes in 13.3-inch or 15.6-inch models and they have your choice of Intel Core i3 / i5 / i7 / AMD CPUs. In the AMD category, you'll be able to choose from Athlon II / V, Turion II, Phenom II, and the quad-core Phenom II X4 CPUs. They're pretty customizable so you can outfit some discrete graphics in there if that's what you want. The 13.3-inch Z360 and 15.6-inch Z560 notebooks are sporting Intel CPUs, while the 15.6-inch Z565 will have AMD CPUs. They all sport chiclet keyboards and, thankfully, they all have optical drives as well. This will be available in June starting at $649.
Lenovo didn't stop there since they've updated their U Series of notebooks as well. The 11.6-inch U160, 13-inch U360, 14-inch U460, and 15.6-inch U560 notebooks will be available in June with new Intel Core i3 / i5 / i7 CPU options. Even the smallest model can be outfitted with an Intel Core i7-UM CPU so that's pretty impressive. Sadly, the base models will be sporting Pentium / Celeron CPU options and they'll be starting at $699. As you can see, they're definitely about a long battery life so portability is key here. There doesn't appear to be discrete graphics options inside of these so Lenovo isn't catering to the gamer community with these ones.
