Lenovo ThinkPad W700ds mobile workstation: New images and details

I am an old Thinkpad fan. I use a Mac when I am at home and I am forced to use a DELL at work, that I hate, and would kill for a Lenovo (IBM) Thinkpad. Seems the boys at Lenovo have been working overtime and made a Widescreen laptop, with a second screen. It looks like  aneat idea and I would love to see it in production.

“When news of Lenovo’s ThinkPad W700ds dual-display workstation broke last week we did wonder if the small photo was a fan mockup - the side display looked very much “tagged on”.  Now new, larger official images have appeared, and it looks like that original picture was accurate.  Happily we also have a new price range, which is much less than what early tips suggested: Lenovo will be selling the W700ds from around $3,600.”
