Been thinking about the Ultra portable X220, pretty hard to refuse this config as per the screen shot with an i7 and broadband/9 cell battery as well as 3 years wty.

  Similarly specced X220 went for 850 for so at the US store. Would cost another 150 or so for priceusa to ship over. There is also international warranty for an extra fee, all in, way under 1600. Pretty easy to resist. Good deals on the Edge series, as usual.

    Not the Core i7, currently close to this offer without the hassle of import costs, and the US has the sucky sierra 3G card:

    Not sure why you are posting the tablet config, its a pretty average deal, I normally wait to they hit $1400 which was what the X200T did almost a year ago, I typing on one!

    At this price shouldn't one be expecting a higher resolution screen, a better graphics card and more battery cells?

• 

  elcrapitan on 04/06/2011 - 21:39

  With the "ThinkPad Edge E520 laptop with discrete graphics." it says it has a "AMD Mobility Radeon 1GB", would anyone happen to know what the model is?

        Hasn't tried any games yet. The laptop is nice, it seems a bit more solid than a Dell. The anti glare screen is great, it's seriously better for doing any work. Frankly, you can't do much better for $610ish for a 2nd gen core i5 Sandy bridge - this is a seriously fast computer, the turbo mode goes up to 2.9Ghz.

        For this price really, it's a no brainer. He got it for $656 +$30 for upgrading the hard drive and wireless. Now it's around $610 I believe with the discounts.

  Does anyone know what the performance difference is with the Intel HD graphics vs the AMD Mobility Radeon 1GB?

    Here are some great benchmarks to compare by, I use the game benchmarks to compare them myself which reveal a fairly significant performance difference.

    Intel HD Graphics 3000: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-HD-Graphics-3000.37948.0.…
    AMD Radeon HD 6630M: http://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Radeon-HD-6630M.43963.0.htm…

    You can get an even more direct comparison here with a little effort:

      Thanks for that, but where did you find the model number? I couldn't see which one it was on the Lenovo website.
