Not sure how you want to achieve those 16 GB RAM in a laptop. AFAIK, W700 has only 2 memory slots and the max capacity laptop RAM modules available on the market are as of now of 4 GB.

The 8GB DDR3 DIMMS are right around the corner... I run a lot of VM sessions and having a mobile lab when I'm on the road is fairly important to me.

Thanks for the link! This looks really great. I could imagine the price of one such module...

By the way, is the W700 to heavy to stay on your laptop for hours? How is the fan noise?
No and Nil. And as for the display, with the color correction software, it does as IBM's blogger Matt Kohut says as it covers more than 70% of the Adobe color gamut.
It's also great for managing many high resolution photos at the same time due to the quad core processor, 8gigs ram and optional mirrored drives. Yeah, IPS is nice but everything else on the W700 makes up for it.

The fan "noise" is fine. W700's RAM limit is 8GB, but the W701, its successor, which will be available in the U.S. on 3/1 will allow for 16GB of RAM. The screen will be of the Multi-Touch kind, and it will at leat have LED instead of CCFL.
