I picked up a used one (IBM branded but same model #), with L2400 Core Duo, 60 GB hard drive, and 1 Gb ram. I needed a replacement for my beloved IBM X40 which I gave away to a friend. Great keyboard (IBM made the best computer keyboards), snappy performance (a HUGE improvement over X40 and way better than those Atom processors found in netbooks), strong wifi, great battery life using the 8-cell battery (well over 5 hours of actual work), light weight yet built rugged to handle on the road demands, and nice 12" screen for real productivity and entertainment on those long flights cross country. I tried one of those 10" screen netbooks with it's flimsy keys (a well known brand) and there's no comparison in performance or build quality to this IBM. The best part is that you get a superior computer at less than half the price. Only cons I see is that the screen is not as bright as the newer laptops, the memory upgrade is limited by a single available slot, no touchpad (only trackpoint), and the fan is noisy under strenuous use (maybe it's just my used one). If you're not blinded by fancy colors or design, the newest OS, or i-Name or NEW, this is a GREAT portable for on the road or couch potato users.

Anyone looking for a cool/compact laptop should definitely buy this. The only cons I have with this laptop is (No CD ROM DRIVE). But I say it's 2011 and technology doesn't rely on Cd's like they used to. And I can just buy a usb cd/dvd burner (simple)!

I wanted to buy a cheap laptop for a trip and choose this, but The laptop have overcome all my expectations; it's like a new (with 6+ hours battery life!), works like a crazy, but the main what I wanna underline is that, once (after the guarantee term was expired) something happened with HDD and was replaced by the seller for free!!!
I advise you to buy from Genie Technologies, LLC!

I had this Lenovo product for two years and in the first year the hard drive died and I had to send it in to be fixed. The second year the samething happen and the operating system went out as well. It took Lenovo 3 months to tell me if they were going to fix it. They never did and exchanged it for a better pc with a brand name that I heard off. I will stay away from Lenovo products because they don't last long and it is a waste of money.
