Performance over design. This plain business design makes one look serious and professional. It's this simple design that I have always loved about Thinkpads over the year. One can spot an Apple from a mile away and know immediately that the sheep has been overcharged.
16:9 is tough to swallow but at least there is (was) a 95% ntsc gamut full hd screen option. Too bad nvidia's optimus switching graphics didnt make it on board-though it is nice to have 2 usb 3.0ports!
I prefer the W500 over the W510, loss of 120 pixels vertically. I dont like the latch on the bottom of the machine, 16:9 looks hideous. A shame business line Thinkpads are gone.
Yeah, I loved the horrendous "cad graphics" on my W500, the latch on the bottom hardly make any difference and I got used to 16:9 in a day. My W510 is just 50% at everything, can't say 10% less pixels slow it down at all. Gone? They are better then ever
lol wow the w519 sports good new features, but why cant they give the thinkpad something extra in lookwise. its 2 genrations on from the t61p and it is EXACTLY the same design.
Actually, it's a major design change from the T61p.
The T60 widescreen, T61p and W500 were all very similar, this is rather substantially different.
That being said, it still maintains the same design aesthetics of a decade-old 600E, which is just fine with me. Why change what's made it a long-time classic? Glossy plastics? Shiny colors? No thanks.
oh goodness no not that kinda change. lets take hp for example. the nc8430 was black as they rraditionally are. the upgrade was likea grey kinda colour (8510w) and the the 8530w (elite range) now have the magnesium finish which makes it look sleek not glossy and fancy to what u thought i may of meant. but the traditional layout is still there as the previous gens has.
Thats the kinda change i meant. so u can tell u got something new if u upgraded from the w500.
Why does everybody say that's a bad design? That looks awesome there. This would probably be my first choice if I were looking to buy a new full PC.
And well yes, you CAN spot an apple from a mile away because there's a light on the back shaped like an Apple.
IF the Toshiba logo on Toshibas lit up it would be the same with them, As with Dell, Compaq, HP I think already does light up...

Precisely right.

You know what they say; less is more.

@ThThThThThThaMan - No, you could easily say "less is more" with any Apple computer. Get less, pay more! Seriously though, This Thinkpad is nice!
