    What's the difference? I'm having issues figuring it out.

    X60s is a little thinner and therefore lighter. It also has an Ultralight LCD screen. If you want better performance, I'd suggest the X60 because it uses the normal Core 2 Duo CPU.

    Depending on what you are doing, you may or may not notice the difference.

    IBM, which designed both, uses X60 exclusively for internal use because of its better build design. More X60s models have been returned for defect. My X60 is property of IBM by the way. I've used both side-by-side and there's no discernable difference in power or use. As for battery life, the official difference is 12 minutes. Proper care of your lion battery will be a far greater determinant in battery longevity.
