NIM Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 My company is getting a replacement for my old business laptop and I have the opportunity to choose one of Lenovo models.I'm considering to choose either T500 or W500. Difference is only in screentype, screen resolution and graphic card, at least I think so. Although,graphic cards should be equivalent.LENOVO ThinkPad W500 • Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo T9600 2,80GHz (6MB cache)• Display: 15.4" WUXGA TFT 1920 x 1200• Graphics: ATIMobility FireGL V5700 512MB• Memory: 2x 2GB DDR3 1066MHz (proširivo do 4GB)• Hard disk: 320GB SATA 7200rpm• DVD-ROM: DVD RW DL• Size: 357 x 255 x 33 mm • Weight: 2.6kg Lenovo ThinkPad T500 • Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo T9600 2,80GHz (6MB cache)• Display: 15.4" WSXGA+ TFT 1680 x 1050, AntiGlare• Graphics: ATIMobility Radeon HD3650 256MB• Memory: 2x 2GB DDR3 1066MHz (proširivo do 8GB)• Hard disk 320GB SATA• DVD-ROM: DVD RW DL• Size: 357 x 255 x 29.7 mm• Weight: 2.63kg I'm considering to go with T model as thishas better resolution IMO. I saw 1920x1200 on a 15.4 inch screen and it's hardto work on it if you don't put your eyes on the screen. Graphic cards should beequivalent, so no noticeable difference among those two. Everything else is the same. What are youropinions, thoughts? Quote
ccl0 Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 (edited) 1920 x 1200 resolution on a 15in screen will make your eyes bleed. the font will be super tiny. actually EVERYTHING will be super tiny so unless you have REALLY good eyes i would not recommend that one. hmm i didn't read the entire thing before posting. looks like you already know that heh. oh and firegl is a workstation card, which you may or may not get much use out of.. i guess you could say the hd3650 is more for the general population.

Guest snakecracker Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 Woww never seen a 15" screen with that kinda res! O_Oi would go with the T version also Quote
NIM Posted October 8, 2009 Author Posted October 8, 2009 Woww never seen a 15" screen with that kinda res! O_Oi would go with the T version also I saw it and everything really is uber small Quote
Mr_Smartepants Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 Definitely go with the T model. The W, with it's ultra high res will make you go blind! I've got a 17" sony notebook with 1920x1600 and it's ridiculously tiny fonts. Quote
