Standard price: $ 2,699 ~
IBM, Inc. announced the ThinkPad 560, a high-cost performance notebook computer equipped with an ultra-thin, large LCD and full-size keyboard.
Three models of Pentium 100/120 / 133MHz are available, and the price starts from $ 2,699 (about 286,000 yen). 100 / 120MHz will be shipped from 28th this month, and 133MHz will be shipped in July. It has proportions and performance comparable to DEC’s Hi-Note Ultra series, but at a low price, and I would like to expect it to be released in Japan.
