another laptop suggestion thread
Hi everyone,

I am in the market for a new laptop, more specifically a business laptop for school ie excel

I was looking at the:

lenovo thinkpad edge e430
lenovo thinkpad t430

budget is $800 for now. The t430 is $200 more as of right now on the site, but is it worth it?

I want something that will last, and a decent video card for videos/movies.

Not a computer person, so any other recommendations will be considered

TIA

Wait until the redflagdeals coupons become active again. You can easily save an extra 20-25% then

Get the t430. It's more durable for sure. Definitely wait for a redflagdeals promo. They have them all the time.

Don't need a video card for movies. I would wait till oct 26 when windows 8 comes out.
