Sensei, if you can find the same product, for a lot less money, I will accept it's a bad deal.
I understand it's a bad deal to you, because you only care about the power of the machine, the cpu, the memory, the graphics.
I already have a good laptop I got 3-4 years ago will last several more years:
Intel i7-6700K 4gz
64gb RAM - DDR4
GTX 980 (Desktop) 8gb
SSD Drive 500gb / and 1TB SATA
The one thing this laptop lacks, is a DVD drive, and I don't want an external one.
I don't want to give up my DVD collection, that's insane, I have so many of my favourite stuff on boxset:
Friends, South Park, Family Guy, Rodney, Star Trek TNG, American Dad, Scrubs to name a few, not to mention hundreds of films, and stand-up comedy dvds.
I am looking for something up to £250 that suits me, I like the look of it, and does the job I want, and the thinkpad does exactly that, it's got weight to it, it's robust, it has nice speakers, a DVD Re-Writer, i've heard better reviews about the durability and reliability about this kind of laptop than anything else within the same price range, and quite frankly, older products just last longer because of materials used, and the biggest geek I know says it's a great laptop as well.
I couldn't find a cheaper deal, or better thinkpad, for my budget, by all means, if you think you can find me a better price for this laptop, please, i'm actually asking you, please find me a better price as i'll be returning this after discovering their advertisement of the graphics was misleading and being f**ked around with the delivery.
If you can help me find a better deal, or a better laptop with the same features, i'd appreciate it!
Edit - The thing i'm really disappointed in, is the top product description, the one that loads when you click "view product details", says "Intel HD Graphics 630" but then the part under it says "Intel HD Graphics 4000".
So i've bought it thinking I was getting 630 when actually could be getting 4000, it's not that big a deal as the only game i'd want to run is WA and it would handle that, but it's the fact they are advertising 2 completely different types of graphics for 1 product...
