Lenovo’s latest 17-inch mammoth ThinkPad W700 mobile workstation will be an ideal choice for desktop replacement. We haven’t seen notebooks featuring a numeric keypad just like in a desktop keyboard and also an integrated digitizer and color calibrator. The Digitizer pad sits nicely besides the touch pad and enables a user to chalk handwritten drawings on the computer. Color calibrator will adjust the colors to give out true to life colors. The rest of the specifications are not a letdown too. W700 will run on an Intel Quad Core mobile processor, up to 8GB RAM, RAID support for HDDs, Wi-Fi, dual link DVI, 5 USB ports, 7-in-1 card reader and NVIDIA Quadro FX 2700M or 3700M Open GL graphics processors with up to 1 GB of dedicated video memory.

As the configuration bar rises higher, the user has the option to go for a Blu-ray burner and even SSDs in lieu of HDDs. The price for the basic config starts from $2978 and will be shipping early next month.
