Specs aren't bad. not sure about thinkpad. never really been my brand but they have been around for a long time.
I'm looking for a 17 inch laptop for the misses. She doesn't spreadsheets and stuff like that for work, and we watch a lot of netfilx.
I'll see what i can find out there.sigpicComment

Nice KG. Lenovo puts out a pretty decent machine.
You may want to look at the RAM for the laptop and see if you can upgrade it. If you can it might be worth it to double your RAM.
Also did the former owner wipe the computer and put a fresh install of everything on there for you?
Rage - pretty much everything I said to KG applies to you.
Only thing I would change is making sure you look into something like Office 365 if she does work from home and an office.
For watching videos either its own graphics card work be nice or 6-8GB of memory world be ideal for you.
Speadsheets I think like processors more than they like memory. So maybe one of the newer i5's would work better for that need. Ratix might now more about that then I do.Last edited by norm; 10-28-2013, 09:42 AM.Comment

And yes it can be upgraded to 16gb of ram and it does have windows 7, the machine is a 2011
