Ugly, too large, too high DPI

I don't like the X200 at all, it's too big, too ugly and has too high dpi.
I was the user of X32 and now I am using an X60. I like the form factor of X60/X61, only wish if Lenovo can upgrade the hardware and solve the palmrest heating problem. Then it will be a perfect machine for me. When X200 came out, I was initially very interested in it. But when I saw the picture, I was really pissed off. For hell's reason why someone in year 2008 should come up a computer with such a HUGE bezel, that's for 1990s. Moreover, I do not see any reason should an ultra portable to become BIGGER! The keyboard on X60 was perfect and I cannot feel any different from typing on X60 and on any decent desktop keyboard. The DPI on X60 was also just fine, even though it was already a bit high. I would prefer 1024x768 on a 14 inch, but on 12 inch is somehow manageable. The X200 came up a monitor with resolution of 1280x800 on a smaller (and wider) 12 inch; I have to question the rational for such 12 inch widescreen - to watch movies? ThinkPad should be a business machine; I need to see text clearly. No movies, thank you!
BTW, no webcam thanks. I just want a small, light, and beautifully engineered machine like X60 with some updates. LENOVO, please come up with an X62, not X200!
