Hi all,
After the feedback that I received here, I decided to buy a laptop. I wanted one that would have good battery life, a decent screen, good keyboard, and be reliable. Budget was 500-700. After agonizing in the lenovo outlet store, I purchased one and wanted to know what you think!

There is a vacant slot for ram, so I'll throw a bit more in probably (which will put it slightly out of budget). But I think I got a pretty good deal, what say all of you?
