The “X”-line was not trying to be a macbook, only the X1 was doing this, which was a class of its own and confused the product lines tremendously.

X- was always ultraportable business laptops, essentially the smaller version of the T-, lots of connectivity, conservative design etc.

T- was the standard sized laptops built to business standards- usually built the best and lasted the longest, with a conservative design and port selection.

W- was the desktop replacement class, the super-amped variant of the T-, compromising portability for power.

Everything else was confused, experimental, sub-tier, and the X1 muddied the branding of the other X-series..
