    5 out of 5 stars LENOVO IdeaPad G550 Laptop   August 30, 2010

    Purchased this for a college student and set it up and configured this with extra features and applications. The laptop despite previous previews of poor sound quality and people with lazy hands that touched the mouse pad the laptop is great. It is fast and comes with the right amount of memory from the start. Sound quality is good and loud too. I wouldn't hesitate to buy or recommend this to friends, family, and clients as a good buy for the money and quality laptop. I plan to buy a few more of these. Lenovo did a good job on this one. It is made in China but everything is made out of USA anymore thses days.

    I did a lot of research to find the best value at 450-500$ and I've narrowed my search down to this laptop.
    quick processor, good amount of ram, good size screen.
    We didn't get charged tax on this purchase, which was a pleasant surprise!
    I like the design that lenovo used on this laptop, It's feels very strong and looks nice as well.
    The performance is great for running everyday applications and multi-tasking but gaming is horrendous on this thing, no big deal though... It's a laptop.
    There was lots of boatware to uninstall initially, more than I'm used to seeing.
    The face recognition software is useless so don't let that feature bring you closer to this laptop.
    The only downside that I've found is that I can't permanently disable the touch pad through the bios or even with the FN keys.
    The only reason I gave the product 4/5 stars is because I'm nit picky.
    Everything else is great!



    5 out of 5 stars Great Laptop for the price   August 23, 2010
    Rob
    Great deal, Under $500. The case is the only problem for me, the materials are not the traditional options for laptops, it feels like plastic or something like that but for $449 is ok, actually, I wasn't expecting something different based on the price. Performance perfect, no problem at all. If you want a low cost laptop, with great hardware performance and average appearance this is a very good option...

    I have had this laptop two days and i just love it. I am so happy with this purchase. The only downside is it doesn't have a SD slot but that can be worked around.
