    Hi

    My employer would like to change my stationary pc to a Lenovo T400, Intel Core 2 Duo P8700 / 2,53 GHz processor, 4 GB Ram. As far as I can tell (google) the graphic controller is ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 / Intel GMA 4500MHD - 256 MB.

    He has promised me, that this laptop will be able to run the two external displays, that I use today. But I am not so shure.

    Usually I have the following programs open at the same time: Outlook, Word, Ecxel, Firefox, a media player and Adobe Indesign, and I would hate to get a slow computer. So can you tell me, if you think or know if the T400 will cut it?
