I like that it comes with NVidia graphics -- that doesn't look like something you can get on a T470. The price point, while expensive, is still much better than I thought it'd be (I was thinking well over $2000).
nVidia graphics mean poorer libre graphics driver support on Linux, compared to Intel graphics drivers, not to mention the battery hit. If you're a developer looking to buy a programming workhorse, Intel graphics are a better choice.
