I am so tempted to sell my XPS and buy this!

WOW. really great deal! i will be purchasing one within a few days hopefully

I don;t know for sure, but the coupon maybe a mistake. It was probably intended to help clear out the old IdeaPad for the new ones they put up today, and they forgot to make it so it only worked on the old models. In other words I'm doubting that this coupon will work in a few days. (It might though, just be warned.)

EDIT, coupon claims to be good through the 25th for what it's worth.

a very good deal indeed. I want to trade my tx2500z for this.

goldenhk · 08-19-2008, 09:29 PM

a P7350!
thought its going to be at least a 8400!

Gah, how frustrating, the coupon doesnt work with the Lenovo student discount. still a great deal nonetheless

edit: How do you add the 10% discount from live.com on the lenovo site? I can't get it to work

ChristopherAKAO4 · 08-19-2008, 10:17 PM

I'm not totally sure, I've never used it on Lenovo.com before. You need to go the link above, then follow the link from their to the Lenovo site, order, then I think you should get a email or something from Live.com telling you how to get your 10% back. You have to wait 60 days before they refund it.

Oh yeah, I tried the student thing too. :-p

All right, thanks. Really this is an incredible deal, its a Sony Z for half the price. I agree, i think Lenovo messed up on the coupon and im going to take advantage of it. perfect laptop for school in the fall

Oh wow, the U330 uses DDR3 ram. I'm surprised, but hey.

That is an excellent deal, almost makes me wish I should have waited.... Almost. xD Dunno what the build quality of the IdeaPads are though, so eh.
