Lenovo today confirmed the launch details for its inadvertent MacBook Air competitor, the IdeaPad U260. The 12.5-inch ultralight still has its 3.04 pound weight and is 0.71 inches thick at most, but its design both borrows from and improves on some Apple traits. It has a MacBook-like magnesium-alloy unibody outer shell that should be stiffer than usual and keeps relatively cool using both a "breathable" keyboard and the same airflow techniques behind the Portege R700.
