Exactly what I'm hoping for, actually. X220 was perfect, except 1366x768 a bit harder for me to be productive on. For most programming I do it's fine as I use vim and don't need a lot of real estate...but for large projects for which I use

if you go to chrome://chrome-urls/ and then down to net-internals, you can get a pretty transparent view of exactly what chrome is doing. plus there's a bunch of other stuff there too.
