E450 may not be as efficient as B960 though. I found ivy bridge B960 perform better than our older arrandale i3-330m! (Benchmark at average 739 vs 2099 vs i3-330 2000)
I just found this site by looking up this laptop on google. If you guys have had a chance to try it out how do you like it? I've got an HP that I've had for 3 years and it overheats all the time and it's starting to breakdown so I'm starting to look for a replacement.
The specs look solid enough, how do you like the keyboard? I absolutely hate Compaqs because the keyboard and touch pad buttons are just awful.

Currently, I have a DV7-6113cl and my wife have a Vostro V131. By comparison, Lenovo keyboard feel the best to me. ( but, you should visit your local bestbuy and test it out yourself. )
lots of these laptop are are to be had at many BB stores still! I was surprised.

Great price, but the trend is to USB 3.0 thanks If you try to find this particular Lenovo model number elsewhere you'll come up empty, no other stores has it. Last year when I bought one of these $300 Lenny's the clerk at BB told me they are made specifically for BB. Certainly is sales price, but once sale is over and inventory depleted, doubt you'll see it in the store again.
You'll have to pay a heck of a lot more than this for USB 3.0 but website states it does have HDMI.

I see the reviews on the AMD chip model and they are higher. Looks like one is Intel, one AMD. I want to use this for heavy internet use.YouTube etc. I want to use this for lots of downloads, and video out.
Which should I choose? What have I missed? thanks all
