    What kind of hard drive caddy does the w700 use? The ultrabay adapter II or the ultrabay adapter III?

    And how is the WUXGA screen on this beast?

    And how is the palmrest area on the w700. On my T60p, I can definitely feel flex in the palmrest area, the plastic is really thin there.

    UltraBay II. I believe the UltraBay III is only for the T400s.

    The WUXGA screen is pretty good (especially when calibrated), but not quite as good as the discontinued FlexViews from the A31-T60P.

    What is really, but there's nothing new out there that's better.

    It is a pitty Lenovo doesn't use IPS screens anymore (I think the current x200 tablet uses a PVA panel).

    Just out of curiosity, how does the w700 WUXGA screen compare to the Dell precision workstation M6400's WUXGA RGB LED display?
