Lenovo has engineered its popular, newly introduced ThinkPad T420s laptop to boot up in 10 seconds or less. As part of Lenovo’s Enhanced Experience (EE) 2.0 for Windows 7 program, the RapidBoot Extreme model has proprietary BIOS and hardware optimizations along with the Intel X25-M Solid State Drive for super startup capability. Most of Lenovo’s 2011 Think and Idea-branded PCs, such as the ThinkPad T420s laptop, are optimized under Lenovo’s EE 2.0 program launched earlier this year. EE 2.0 provides industry-leading startup/shutdown performance and other optimization features for Lenovo consumer and business PCs.
Lenovo’s IdeaPad Y570 laptop, coming in June, also features sub-10 second boot up.
