Hello,

I was looking into laptops and came across lenovo thinkpad E420.
I upgraded battery to a 9-cell one as my school said there are 'limited' power outlets in class. The price is 800 before taxes.


Intel Core i5-2520M Processor (2.50GHz, 3MB L3, 1333MHz FSB) with Intel Turbo Boost Technology up to 3.2GHz
Genuine Windows 7 Professional 64
14.0" W HD (1366x768), AntiGlare, Midnight Black
Intel HD Graphics 3000
4 GB PC3-10600 DDR3 SDRAM 1333MHz SODIMM Memory (2 DIMM)
320GB Hard Disk Drive, 7200rpm
Multi Recorder Optical Drive (12.7mm)
9 cell 2.8Ah Li-Ion Battery
Intel Centrino Wireless-N 1000
No WWAN support
1141 : 1 Year Transactional
E420 is a bit bulkier than E420S but the specs change are much more flexible.

It's kinda heavy with a 9cell battery, but oh well.

I've never used Thinkpad before...
What do you think?

the lenovo thinkpad line is arguably the best PC line in terms of quality and durability. especially in the T line. Edge series is a little more consumer friendly but less durable. how is the battery life on your E420 with 9 cell?
