SKU announcement

Series
W

The documented configurations describe ThinkPad W700ds as a 17.0-inch graphics-oriented mobile workstation built around Intel Core 2 Quad. It combines a 17.0-inch primary display with a sliding 10.6-inch secondary display.

Historical context

The sliding secondary portrait screen made this a self-contained dual-display workstation. Quadro graphics, a palm-rest digitizer and colour calibration addressed visual production without relying entirely on a desk monitor.
