For our testing today we are converting a 3.3GB 720p MKV file (2h:12mins) to Apple Mp4 format for playback on a portable device. This is a common procedure for many people and will give a good indication of system power. We are using the newest version which has been optimised for Sandybridge processors.
We couldn't get the Nvidia GT620M to become accessible in MediaEspresso, however Intel's processor supports hardware acceleration. We enabled it.
The system delivers a good final result in this test, with a final score of 15 minutes and 40 seconds. By comparison, an Intel ATOM processor will take around 1 hour and 15 minutes to complete the same task.
I love their keyboards too, my boss has one in work (not sure of the model number, but the keyboard is fantastic).
id rather have a less powerful laptop with a great screen and keyboard rather than the latest processor.
I hate the idea of the battery being inside the chassis. never liked that idea.
I like the look of their new carbon X1. I bought the original X1 on your review last time and I think its almost perfect. If they improve the screen on the carbon version im flogging mine off and upgrading to the new one.
WOW, that thing is thicker than the power brick LOL
