The system weighs 4.15 pounds, which is lighter than the 17-inch Dell Precision M2800 and lighter and smaller than the Lenovo ThinkPad W540, Our Choice mobile workstation editor.

Connectivity is excellent. Noble has a port security, an SD card reader, a USB 2.0 port, and a USB 3.0 port on the right side of the system. Note that the same USB port has the same color, so you're going to have to look closely at the labels to see which is the faster USB 3.0 ports.

The backlit keyboard is comfortable to use, even without the numeric keypad. The wide touchpad is centered on the space bar, and is as responsive as the touch screen. The system comes with Windows 8.1 Pro pre-installed, with a USB stick instead of a recovery partition on the 256GB solid-state drive (SSD). You can downgrade to Windows 7 Professional in both Microsoft license if your business is not standardized on Windows 8.1.
