dm1z vs x120e - Raw Performance Numbers

Including some raw side by side performance numbers on the HP Pavilion dm1z and Lenovo ThinkPad x120e. The numbers were interesting because the dm1z generally beat the x120e on all tests though not by wide margins.  I wanted to see such numbers before making my buy decision to ensure there were no glaring performance issues between my two target systems. As it turned out this did not influence my decision to buy the dm1z over the x120e as performance wise they are essentially equal.

This table I got from the engadget review of the x120e (higher numbers better)

System	PCMarkVantage	3DMark06	Battery Life
Lenovo ThinkPad X120e	2465	2080	4:56
HP Pavilion dm1z	2510	2213	5:02

Side by side x120e and dm1z specs from PCWorld (weight, dimenstions, etc.)

More performance numbers in the table below from PCWorld. They did not have these tables side by side so I copied the data here for ease of comparison (not all the data, just some of the items that I care about the most). I'm assuming higer numbers are better though PCWorld didn't seem to give and info on what the numbers mean.
