    Today Lenovo has a superb deal on their Y550 series with enhanced graphics. I’ve been looking at this particular model for some time now and it has fairly impressive specs (T6600, 4 GB DRR3, 500GB HD, GT210 *GT240 for another $50*) All for only $650, and on top of that you could upgrade it even more. The only two things I do not know about are its screen quality and battery life. Both of which are fairly important, but more-so the battery. Can anyone on here let me know how long of a battery life I should expect with a GT240 configuration on a 6-cell battery? I would be running things like Word and use the Wireless, and when plugged in I’d like to do some gaming on newer titles and use the GT240 at its max.


    If someone has already asked or posted these results, sorry I've missed the thread.
