This is such a good value.Four years ago, this T440 was a top of the line laptop.  Some corporation bought a huge number of them for their IT department to issue out to attorneys, CEOs, etc.  They got a pretty good processor and RAM, and an outstanding keyboard, in a small laptop that had a big enough screen to work with.  They probably loved how this computer is basically the perfect size for the table on an airplane.  Then IT took the laptops back and replaced them with another set of super nice laptops, and some reseller has cleaned them up and resold them to us.For a small fraction of the price, we still get an excellent screen and keyboard, with slightly dated processors and aged batteries.  Mine showed some signs of use on the outside.  It still looks almost new, but it clearly was in and out of a bag a few times.  The keyboard feels brand new.  The screen looks brand new.This particularly laptop, the T440, is perfect for a student who intends to type a lot, and quickly.  I'm using it for law school, where I'll need to type a couple of long papers over the semester, and also type a written exam.  I don't care that this laptop has half the RAM of my desktop at home.  I don't care that it doesn't have an advanced graphics card for games.  It runs Word and Chrome perfectly, and it types better than even the most expensive laptop I could buy.  The size is perfect.  It's much easier to tote around than a 15.6 inch laptop.  It's only marginally heavier than a 12.3 inch.  The screen is easy to read at this size, and the keyboard feels like a full size (because there's no number bad, and the function keys share function with the hardware functions like volume and brightness).I could get a T460 for a lot more money, but I doubt I'd ever notice any difference.  I just need something that's comfortable and accurate to type with, and is durable and easy to tote around all day.The computer has all the specs advertised.  I didn't notice that it has a magnetic hard drive rather than an SSD.  The battery sucks, but is giving me a reliable 3 hours of life.  There's an internal battery that works fine, but I wouldn't risk anything important on it.  Replacing the hard drive with an SSD and getting a new 6 cell battery will make this laptop perfect.I've tested every port and function and it's good as new.  It has Windows 10 pro installed, and I had to go to Lenovo to get all the new drivers.  There was a pretty significant difference in performance with new drivers.  The cooling seemed to work better, for example, so you definitely need to do this.  But Lenovo has an automated webpage to make it fairly easy, and I don't have any bloatware installed.All in all, this is better than getting a new one.  I don't have to worry about scuffing an already scuffed machine.  I don't have to worry about destroying thousands of dollars in hardware.  I'm just very pleased with the smart size and the amazing keyboard.
