    Personally, I believe the FHD screen is worth it, but I'm a screen real estate junkie. What was the final price?

    That configuration is $2000+. The FHD is definitely worth it, but the i7-620M is not a big step up from the i5. Lenovo only offers i7 QM in the W510.

    The T510 performs well. It's more cool and quiet compared to the Dell 1558 of similar configuration.

    i5-520m is only slightly slower than the i7-620m, they are both dual core cpu. Don't let i5 versus i7 branding fool you.
