No, as noted previously, x did not start as blades -- x predates the blades.

And also as noted previously, ThinkPads have their own branding, A, G,
R, X, T, Z -- unrelated to i, p, x, z branding.

BTW, you never had a ThinkPad T90 -- never was such a beast. The 600
series (600, 600E, 600X) begat the T2x (T21, T22, T23) which begat T30
and then T40/T41/T42. T5x were skipped; then we had T60 and T61, and
now T400/T500 (indicating 14.1/15.4 inch screens).

Branding is such fun!
