    Just a quick question from a T61p owner considering upgrading and downsizing (screen :p ). Does anybody with a 14" T400 have Solidworks or ProE that they can test out, or have seen run on it? I know my 570m handles both flawlessly but I'm wondering as to the T400's. Any help greatly appreciated.

    I know Pro/E WF 3 runs on a T42 but not all that well at all lol...the HD 3470 should do ok but then again its not optimised for 3D apps like your m570 is.
