    Both seem to be great laptops, and I know the v4000t has a large following. But I do work with a lot of msdn microsoft stuff, and would like something Vista capable, as I may dual-boot with a vista build here shortly. Knowning they are similar in price, especially when configured with comparable features, is there any other input anyone can give as to which is going to be more longevity based?

    I've read here for days, and at notebookforums.com and it looks like via tweaking the voltage on the 5672 you can keep the heat down, and that's about the only thing I've really seen that is an "issue" with it..

    Thanks ahead of time for your input, would like to order today/tomorrow, just waffling between the 2 :)
