The mobile computing industry is currently on an ascending path and more and more computer users are seeking to get rid of their desktop systems and switch over to notebooks and laptops. Traditionally, the mobile side of the computer industry was accessible with only some serious spending as some time ago a modest level laptop or notebook came with a price tag that was at least double when compared with a similarly equipped desktop.

In order to attract more and more users to the mobile side of the fence, notebook manufacturing companies are now adopting a different strategy as they release both very expensive and affordable solutions that are aimed at attracting users without big financial possibilities.

Among those companies there is the Chinese outfit Lenovo that just announced the launch of its G series of laptop systems which are meant to represent a budget offering for value-conscious customers that are looking to exchange the desktop system with a mobile solution. While not really impressive on the hardware specifications side, the Lenovo G400 comes with a decent enough performance level as it features an Intel Dual Core T2080 central processing unit that runs at 1.73GHz, has a 533MHz frontside bus and uses 1mB of L2 cache memory.

On the display side the G400 is equipped with a 14.1-inch widescreen LCD that is capable of displaying high definition resolutions. A multi function 4 in 1 card reader is also integrated into this laptop as is a modem and a Bluetooth 2.0 adapter. Like the ThinkPad laptop editions, the G series comes with a full sized keyboard and an integrated microphone and a Realtek High Definition Audio processing unit for crystal clear sounds.

The Lenovo G400 mobile computer system comes bundled with a few software applications like the One Key Recovery that allows users to recover their important data, the Power2Go 5.5 multimedia software and the Energy Cut 2.1 that increases the efficiency of the power management sub-system.
