^^^link doesn't work.. and 8600m won't be that good for graphics i guess... not much difference between 8400m i believe.. lol
 seems like Lenovo laptops have some good graphics.. for graphic designers/etc lol nvidia quadro should be good for graphic designs.

I have that nearly maxed out. It is relatively light to me, with the heavier battery it goes over 4 hours while actually doing stuff with a bright screen and everything, so on power saver it might get 5. It can do things performance wise good most days. With vista I find it laggy, if you put XP on it it will go amazing fast I bet.

I would buy that if there were an xp option. in fact, after some googling, you have to downgrade the bios just to install xp.

I said money is not a concern. If it is $10,000 and it has the power to photoshop/dreamweaver/firefox/audacity simultaneously w/ minimal lag and has 3 hrs batt life, then I wan't to know about it, because that beats the "weak w/ good batt" and "powerful, but crappy batt" ones I have seen.
