All Lenovo notebooks can be equipped with Intel® Core™2 Duo processors, with some offering Intel Centrino Pro technology that combines the latest processors, next-generation chipsets and advanced wireless technology.
Select ThinkPad notebooks and mobile workstations can be equipped with a dedicated graphics processor-such as the NVIDIA Quadro® FX Mobile GPU-and memory for superior performance and discrete graphics processing.
Select ThinkPad notebooks and mobile workstations offer advanced multimedia options such as an integrated 1.3 megapixel camera, Blu-ray DVD, 7-in-1 multimedia card reader, VGA, DisplayPort, Dual Link DVI-D, and more.
Solid state storage drives use Flash memory rather than traditional magnetic storage. So they're lighter than traditional drives, use less power and offer improved performance (faster boot times, faster access to stored data). And since they have no moving parts, solid state drives are considered less susceptible to damage or breakdown.
The ThinkVantage® Active Protection System™ (on models with traditional magnetic hard drives) uses an accelerometer to monitor movement of the system and stop the drive and help protect against damage when a fall or similar event is detected.
Lenovo notebooks feature a variety of password security tools such as Password Manager (ThinkPad and Lenovo 3000) and VeriFace™ facial recognition (IdeaPad) to help keep your system – and the data within it – safe and secure.
The ThinkPad W700 offers a 120cm x 80cm Wacom® palm-rest digitizer and pen, ideal for digital content creation and CAD/CAM applications, which can be configured to map to the entire screen or a user-defined area.

Under the federally-funded EPEAT program in the U.S., manufacturers declare their products' conformance to a comprehensive set of environmental criteria. EPEAT Silver products must meet all 23 required criteria and at least 50% of the optional criteria.
Select Lenovo notebooks carry the new Energy Star 4.0 label attesting to their superior energy efficiency. This lowers operating costs, but it also means less overall energy use and reduced heat emissions.

Windows 8 Systems With Downgrade Facilitation Rights (preinstalled Windows 7 downgrade)
Downgrade Facilitation: Systems that are preinstalled with Windows 7 Professional software and also come with a license and media for Windows 8 Pro software may only use one version of the Windows software at a time. Switching between versions requires you to uninstall one version and install the other version.
Downgrade Facilitation: To enable downgrade to Windows 7 on this system, the BIOS settings were changed to boot into legacy BIOS mode. If the BIOS setting is not changed to native UEFI mode boot prior to installing, Windows 8 Pro will install; however, the following Windows 8 Pro functionalities will not work as they rely on a native UEFI mode boot:
- Secure Boot
- Seamless Boot experience
- Network unlock for Bitlocker for systems with a Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
- eDrive support
Please refer to the system packaging or the support website (www.lenovo.com/support) for instructions on how to switch the BIOS mode. Reverting to UEFI mode will require a hard drive reformat and all data and personal settings will be lost. It is highly recommended that you back up your data before you modify any BIOS settings.
