I bought this laptop after an exhaustive search for something affordable, that would still meet my needs. I first found this laptop in a best buy but to my dismay they didn't have it in stock only on display. After waiting for a full week for it in store i found it on Amazon at a cheaper price and purchased it.I was initially wary of the AMD processor having only used intel based products. I was pleasantly surprised at the processing speed. I have been able to tackle all of my day to day computing tasks with this device. My main concerns proceeding with this purchase was its size as I prefer a 14" and the processor. My fears were quickly allayed when it got to me. This is an awesome device for the price. I have been able to complete simple tasks and I have even played some decent older games on it which didn't require too much of the graphics card. For the price this is a good machine. I haven't had a single problem with it in the two years I have owned it. This is my first lenovo and it wont be my last.
