As long as you're not buying Green Furnace Lite I doubt you'll have issues or regrets

why didnt razer put a flammable notice of caution on there?

OP is deciding between a T430, XPS13 (4GB RAM) or Blade Stealth (aka the Green Furnace Lite)

T430: Better build, better cooling than the xps 13, better keyboard, more ram, more bang for the bug, easy to fix if you somehow fuck it up, the screen can be meh, but also pretty good depending on what model of the T430 you get, first gen with out the original keyboard design, ram upgrade able

 

XPS 13: Looks nice, okay cooling, okay keyboard, really nice screen, you need to get the model with atleast 8gb of ram, because you can't upgrade it.

 

Blade stealth: NO BAD.

I think they should bundle it with some T-bone stakes

Oh yeah and if you get the top model of the t430 the cpu will be better than a i5 5200u, but with worse build in graphics.

oh man that would be pretty good, maybe Razer should be a restaurant instead, I mean they do have the Razer Toaster or Razer Project BreadWinner

So Stealth is a toaster, T430 is a much better option then XPS 13, and stuffs, but XPS 13 just looks a bit better, nice screen and ye. btw what about battery life

Put a new battery in the T430 and it should have about 7 hours+, if you get the 9 cel battery

A t430 goes for about 500$ I think and a battery is 80-100$

Expect from parts to them, they are pretty easy to find new, because everyone knows they last such a long time that there always will be people who needs parts for a older thinkpad
