Summary: Compact, but fast, a Porsche of a note book.
Review: I have owned this little wonder for a little over a year now, and it has never failed me. Getting it to run XP was a little stressful, but now it has been a reliable and wonderful school PC and a great travel notebook. The biggest selling point has to be the size- I can tuck it into my purse or just carry it like a clutch, anywhere I need to take my work. The three-plus hours of battery time are perfect for travel or when I just feel like writing outside.
The memory is a little spare, but it's so easy to network that I can access it with my desktop and backup easily. I recently purchased a media slice docking station, with which I will gain a DVD drive and some more capabilities, but even all by itself the x22 is perfect for portable and high-performance computing.

Summary: Really nice laptop I have ever owned.
Review: Please don't hesistate to buy this rare laptop. With PIII 800 MHz, the little one runs as great as my current DELL 5100, which is a P4 2.4G. With only 3.4 lb weight,you can take it to anywhere you want. BTW, with the car kit plugged, you can even enjoy movies or play games in your SUV! Imagine it. I hope you won't think me as a too enthusiastic fan for IBM, but the amazing quality and performance beat down any other brands I have owned before. Comparing with X23 or even X24, the X22 is a little out dated. But the 800Mhz will never fall behind 1.2G. I have tried several games and other software on both of them. There is really small difference between them. What's more, X22 has been evaluated as the best laptop by numerous websites and newspapers. 20G hard driver plus 12'screen plus 256 M memory and car kit will make your life perfect. I really love it. Hope you do so!
