    So I think I've decided on the T510. Anything I should know before buying, any problems with it? And are there any coupons I can use on lenovo.com?

    And what's the differecne between these? I'm lost.

    There aren't any great coupons right now, one that expires today is a 5% off coupon, code USPUPGRADES. For the Intel Centrino options, basically the more you pay the more antennas you get on the wireless chip and thereby better wireless range. For most people the N 1000 or N 6200 will suffice. The ThinkPad T510 owner's lounge thread will help you to find any issues and what other buyers think of this model (long thread, lots of reading!):

    Good luck with the purchase!
