    Weird...The only option for T430s with intel GPU is a 90w ac adapter...

    The T430s is advertised to have RapidCharge to get the battery to 80% in 30 minutes. The T430 does not. Could have something to do with it...

    why does it matter? do you carry the ac adapter for a laptop around?

    its not that much extra weight anyhow.

    Here's a picture of my T60p's 90W @ 20V adapter. I'm assuming its the same one. I don't find it heavy or cumbersome, it shouldn't be an issue really
