It would still have a French keyboard (also in the specs). I've noticed that the Lenovo outlet has a few of these swimming around. Buyers beware, be very very sure to read the specs closely from this site.

I have 3 times so far put my address in at the outlet to "Get email updates on upcoming offers". 3 times I've gotten the welcome reply - but never received anything else from them. No spam filter is involved. Does anybody get email alerts from them?

:eek:
wow how'd do you that. I thought the lowest they ever were was $506 for an i5 back in January. I guess you are proof there was something better. Your deal sounds like the best deal ever even better than the HP coupon mistake (A6 6750M Bluray for $425) in September last year..

I noticed they had 128 of them and they were not selling so i checked daily and they reduced them to $414 plus tax. Same price for an i7 sandybridge but integrated graphics

That's amazing! you were definitely lucky!:D How do you like it so far--pretty quiet? I heard some people had a loud grinding fan on their Lenovo notebooks. Did that price last longer than a day?....maybe you should have purchased 2 of them (another i5 --for possible resale.).;)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okipMhoK_q8 -- here is a sample BF3 performance of GT 555.

[But the ATI 5730 will not be quite as good as GT 555. But it should perform ok..similar to a 6650M which isn't bad]
