What is The % of Adobe RGB that it can show? Sony is claiming higher fidelity with their new AW series.And they are using an LED backlight.

sry for the delay: the W700 shows 72% of the adobe RGB color space. It also has a brightness of 400nits. This is twice as bright as a typical notebook computer. The Sony is a higher gamut at about 100% of the adobe RGB color space but only 300nits (from my understanding). This means the W700 is around 33% brighter. As you probably know, brightness is a big deal when you are working in "non-perfect" conditions like on a photo shoot, a wedding, outside, etc. Hope this info helps...

Yeah, uh, except this one is portable and can sit on your lap... hence 'laptop'. Sorry.

The Lenovo w700 is nice, but a bit large. I would prefer the w510, which is smaller and it only sacrifices hard drive space (same CPU/Ram capabilities). I have an extremely detailed unboxing, review and comparison of the W510 for the more serious buyers. It is on my channel, here:

Not trying to spam, just letting you guys know there is finally a super-detailed review of the Lenovo workstation series laptops.

DVD-RW default, BD-RW optional.

Too bad about the backlight bleed through. Needs an update with an RGB LED display, and preferably not a TN panel.

[UFOsportsJeroen]

does it have blue ray
