We chose to compare the ATi Mobility Radeon 7500 driver to the ATi Fire GL 7800 driver. Using SpecViewPerf 6.1.2, we are able to get an idea of the performance difference between the drivers. Although there was a difference in the drivers' performance, it was not as large a margin as we would have guessed. The biggest advantage of using the 7800 drivers comes with the fact that they are ISV certified, as far as we can tell.

Dear Tom;
I thought this was a wonderful and thorough evaluation of the A31p. What I would like to know is if you have reviewed any other ThinkPad computers with which you are equally impressed, if not more so? I am considering purchasing an A31p, but I am trying to find out if there are any slightly newer models similar features, but maybe slightly better video? Thank you for your time. PS: I tried to find this information on your website, but I could not even find this review? V/R David
