Hi everyone,
I was curious if anyone else has weighed the pros and cons about the
Lenovo T410s vs. Dell Latitude E4310.
The Lenovo seems to be a powerhouse with reasonable weight, but at a higher cost. The Latitude is lightweight an inch smaller but seems to have much of the functionality of the Lenovo.
Can anyone comment on owning/using a Dell computer similar to the E4310? As far as I know Lenovo's are known for reliability, but I've heard mixed reviews about Dell.
For those who purchased the X201/X201s, after you have had a chance to use it for a while do you have any comments about the performance/screen keyboard size?
Thanks for your time and help and have a great day.

The keyboard on the x201 is very comfortable, but I've been using a 9" netbook for a couple years now, so take that with a grain of salt. The performance is great. The 12" screen size is good enough for mobile use and most tasks, but I see myself plugging into an external monitor for heavy lifting when at home. The screen does not have the same great contrast and deep blacks of macbook pros, but the screen is matte so there is no glare. The biggest complaint I have with macbook pros is that they get really hot in your lap, since they are metallic. This laptop is far cooler and more comfortable to put on your lap.
