When asked if Apple would ever produce netbooks, Steve Jobs was quoted as saying they didn't "know how to build a sub-$500 computer that isn't a piece of junk."
So--does Lenovo know? Their new line of IdeaPads, at the very least, don't look like pieces of junk; "High design, low price" is how eWeek describes them. Up top, their S12 starts at $449; the U350 below goes for $649, but frankly looks like it should cost more. And while it's not a netbook, their IdeaCentre C300 all-in-one machine goes for a stunningly low $449.
Says a Lenovo spokesperson of the Idea line, "they offer stylish design at prices you don't usually get stylish design for."
