Lenovo IdeaPad Z570: Style Comes Cheap

 

Lenovo's new IdeaPad Z570 is a notebook that falls in the lower price bracket. It's a segment that is crowded with laptops from pretty much every manufacturer out there. System configurations are also pretty identical and choosing one can be confusing.

Better than first thought

 

I installed CS6 and Solid Works to this laptop and it runs without a hitch and is so sleek and smooth. Best Laptop I've had in years. I am a converted MAC user

Thicker than what I was used to, but I used to have a MacBook Air, so my paper even seems thick
