Not a bad deal, FYI No Touch-Screen and Backlit Keyboard.
FYI according to Lenovo part lookup the LCD is a TN panel but FHD resolution.

How much RAM is reserved for the GPU? I have seen a S340 with Ryzen 5 where the GPU was configured to take 2 GB RAM without the option of changing to a lesser value in the BIOS.

You can change gpu vram usage in the bios or (I think) in the intel graphics settings app.

BTW, I used the staples $50 off on another laptop that had a problem and I returned it.

System won't let you use the coupon again, even though you did a return.

Edit: mine was a 256gb SSD versus a 1tb Hard drive; same price. No sense buying any laptop without SSD.
Got this a few weeks back from a Staples for my elementary school daughters.
Quick startup and works great, but we're not putting a lot of stress on it.
Screen / panel is certainly not great, but not horrible either.
I think what you get for the price is quite a good deal.

Yeah, I wanted that one but it went OOS. Seems there's more elasticity in the price, so I'll wait for BF. After using nothing but SSD machines for over 8 years, its hard to go back to a spinning drive.

I agree. I finally gave that same one with the SSD to my daughter as an early birthday present and she's enjoying the speed of it.

Good thing with this one is that you can remove the optical disc drive and replace it with a hard drive caddy, and move the 1tb drive to there, then install a SSD drive as a boot drive. so u will have a Ssd boot drive, and the 1 tb for storage.
