w520 vs. w530.

The machines are *very* similar but the w530 is over a year (and another intel cycle) newer. Not to mention the graphics improvement (Kepler vs. Fermi).

I like my w520 and it would be a foolish upgrade to go from 520 to 530 (neither one is close to cutting edge anymore). But there ARE differences.
