    Lenovo Stockholder site (SPP) has the IdeaPad Y550 for $549 plus free shipping.
    (Found on another deal site but you can give me rep if you like)

    Lenovo.com List Price $799
    Shareholder Price: $549 after coupon
    Expires June 19 and there is a limited quantity of the eCoupons.

    It takes a little bit of effort, but it's a great deal!!

    1. Go to www.lenovo.com/spp (I find it works best to type the URL manually in your browser)
    2. You'll need to click "Create Account". You only need to provide your name and email to get a password to enter the site. The password will be emailed to you immediately.
    3. Login and click Notebooks => Click IdeaPad => Click Y Series => click IdeaPad Y550 HD entertainment
    2. Add Model #: 418644U to your cart
    3. Apply coupon USEIDEA44U for an additional $121 to bring the price down to $548.94

    - Intel® Core 2 Duo processor T6400 ( 2GHz 800MHz 2MB )

    From what I've heard the y450 only gets the G105M in the US. Does anyone know the max gpu the y550 gets?

    Thanks thats really relieving. In that case, how come lenovo's website has the top GPU on all y550s and 450s as the 105M? Does this mean i can buy the y550 that says it has a g105 m and it will really have a g130m?

    Hello guys,

    Last night, I found that my girl friend's Lenovo IdeaPad Y450 optical drive cover (not slot in type optical drive) was really loose. :confused: I'm thinking that whether it was originally like that or ...? How about you guys, loose or solid built. I just have to push a little bit of the optical drive's cover and it sounds "tik tok tik tok" ... :mad:
