I've given up on the idea of one of the workstation models, though. Pricing is so high that I could get a quad-core business notebook, AND a mid-range gaming notebook for what the configuration of the workstations that I'd need to do both jobs would cost. Plus the 130+ watt power brick precludes use on airplanes or in the car, whereas the 65W or 90W brick for a Dell Latitude 5470/5570 or the Lenovo T460p (presumably 90W?) works basically anywhere.
I upgrade often enough that I'm not waiting for that one. I'm just waiting for final pricing on the Lenovo T460p before I decide between that and one of the Latitudes.
Per the spec sheet available at thinkworkstations.com, the standard power supply for the P50s is 65w.
