    Hi guys,

    Just curious to find out what the people who have it think about this particular machine? It seems decently rounded w/ some nice nuance features like a backlit keyboard and ultrabay. Specs look good too - core i7, 8gb ram, 650m, 1tb Hdd etc

    I'm eyeing up the €999 model on komplett.ie but the graphics card has been updated quite recently from the 650m to the 750m, just this month in fact. It's annoying as I was going to take the plunge but having heard of this news I may as well wait until komplett update the site with the newer models, which I doubt will be anytime soon.

    This is the laptop if anyone's interested.

    I don't have the exact model, but in my job they only use Lenovo so I have had a lot of models (currently the T520) and there great. Never have any complaints. Built well and usually come well equipped. I would definetly recommend them.

    Anyway that's my two cents, sorry I don't have any experience with that particular model

    Google the problems with the trackpad and keyboard, I looked at it but went for something cheaper.
