    Well, T61 and R61 had Nvidia but no CUDA support.

    The W510 or W520 are both good choice for you, both have CUDA support.

    Get superb performance and value from your 15.6? mobile workstation with the NVIDIA® Quadro® FX 880M professional graphics solution. <-- this is the one used in the W510.

    Get ultimate professional graphics for your 17? mobile workstation with the NVIDIA® Quadro® FX 3800M solution, providing a full-featured, high performance experience. <--- Thinkpad W701.

    W520 which is the latest iteration of the W series should also have CUDA support.
