    haha... don't know why that is, but in the customization screen, there's the correct price.

    Lenovo's site is rather notorious for mistakes.

    I've seen W700s that mistakenly had the price of $0.00.

    The e220 is the flagship of the Thinkpad lineup, hence the price.

    ...
    jk, Lenovo tends to have lots of stupid typos/errors on their site. Sometimes they are made to our advantage though.

    the chinese factory mis-spelled lenovo, and printed "Prada" on it instead. Lenovo decided to make lemonade out of the lemons

    OK, this was mildly amusing the first time I saw it here like in 2004, but do we need to post every time Lenovo makes a price mistake?
