Strengths: Fast and powerful, as feature-filled as a desktop, love the fingerprint security feature, leonovo support was good (would have been excellent but their support server was down for a weekend) contacted them for Win XP recovery disks as I am not a fan of Vista. BTW, with XP this laptop loads VERY fast, second only to my gaming machine. Installation of XP was straight forward. 7200 rpm hard drive is fast. Fan is whisper quiet. Screen has a matte finish (a big point for me). Docking tray is loaded with features, but I find I don't need it on the road. Wireless reception is the best I have seen. Packing was awesome, three layers of box and foam.

Weaknesses: Typical bloatware found on a new machine. Uninstalled a bunch and let XP do the work.

Summary: Showed off my new Lenovo the same day a co-worker happened to bring in his MacBook Air. After everyone oo-ing and ah-ing over over the thin Mac, two guys in the office admitted there were more features on this machine and stated this would be their next laptop. CostCentral's processing of this order was excellent. Will use them again.
