The upcoming (should be release in a few months) ThinkPad L430 is the success to the previous L412 and L420 (Sandy Bridge) based laptops. Lenovo doesn't spell it out exactly, but the L series is basically the value/budget oriented ThinkPad lineups, making it a more affordable option than the T or X series. It includes neat new features such as 180 degree hinges. Discrete graphics option seems like it'll be available, and we expect workstation-class GPUs from nVidia's NVS lineup. There's also a
bigger 15.6-inch brother in the form of a L530.
