IBM ThinkPad R50e

There's no disputing that IBM builds some of the best notebooks in the industry. The R50e, with its strong design and solid performance, follows in this vein. Yet its weak feature setno wireless solution, just two USB ports, and a trailing-edge CD-ROM...

Great keyboard and good performance

Only CD-ROM optical drive. No built-in wireless solution

Good performance and great keyboard notwithstanding, there's not enough bang for the buck here compared with the features others in this class deliver.
