I looked at the Lenovo too. Great spec for the price, but me being a materialistic bugger I didn't like the way it looked.

Happy with it so far, but the keyboard is taking some getting used to, they've added the number pad to the right, which I don't like, but apart from that i'm happy enough with it.

That's a cracking price for that spec. Lenovo are usually pretty reliable too.

that is the exact unit i bought last october for £450 - had a problem with the motherboard soon after buying but lenovo were great and sorted it quickly.  been very pleased with it in general - use it for films/tv shows, browsing and FM - i don't do other games on pc.

great find for that price
