Lenovo keeps the lid on its new IdeaCentre desktops, at least for now

Lenovo kept the focus on its new IdeaPad laptops at the show, but it also introduced a new desktop line, albeit very quietly. The three IdeaCentre models depicted here will come out in Europe at first, and although a US and Asia introduction is likely, specs, pricing, and which models will cross over are all still to be determined. The last time we reviewed a true Lenovo home desktop was in March of 2006, with the Lenovo 3000 J-Series. It appears that Lenovo has paid attention to desktop design trends in the meantime.


The IdeaCentre K200 has a media card reader among its various front-panel inputs.



It's hard to tell much about the IdeaCentre Q200, other than it has a slick white-and-silver design.



The Mini Q might be our favorite of the IdeaCentres, at least based on looks.
