Lenovo ThinkPad W700 - Old School Charm

By Vijay Anand

Another monster notebook has hit our labs in the form of the Lenovo ThinkPad W700, a 17-inch workstation behemoth that is strangely agile for its size and weight, and it even boasts an integrated Wacom tablet. We kid you not.

There's really not too much to differentiate the W700ds from the W700, as you'll find that the general build and design are similar. In fact, if you've taken a good look at ThinkPad machines before, you'll note that the W700 will feel right at home ...

Lenovo ThinkPad W700: The Graphic Artist's Notebook

With a workstation's power (and price) in an understated package, this laptop is built for road-ready digital graphics artists.

Lightweight, for such a large notebook ; Excellent drawing tablet

Angle of view on LCD is pretty narrow ; Enormous power brick

The ThinkPad W700 may look understated--and it's a bit of a kitchen-sink approach to computing--but it's a top-flight notebook. For on-the-go graphics artists, or those looking for the ultimate mobile workstation, it's hard to beat

Because the W700 is a mobile workstation, it comes with mobile workstation graphics--either the nVidia Quadro FX 2700M with 512MB of dedicated graphics memory, or the nVidia Quadro FX 3700M, with 1GB of memory ($400 extra), that came with our...

By Cisco Cheng

Lenovo ThinkPad W700

By Justin Wolfson

Award: Editor's Choice!

While nicknamed around the office as "world's largest laptop" the W700 really packs some power.

Nice clean matte look., Dedicated graphics card., Powerful performance., Great features including built in tablet

Very pricey., Quite heavy can't travel with., Touchpad Scroll bars need improvement

The W700 is one heck of a powerhouse with a great selection of features. While it is heavy and large in size and will take a nice chunk out of your pockets, if you are looking for a top of the line computer for visual and graphic aid, this is the ...

Lenovo ThinkPad W700

By Dan Havlik

Lenovo tries to attract Apple users with this fully stuffed mobile photography workstation.

In my positive review of the 8-core MacPro computer workstation back in July, I declared, "The days of the big powerful desktop machines may be on the wane." While that could have been overstating it a bit (hey, I'm a columnist; I'm entitled to an ...
