tiza126 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I'm window shopping for a new laptop. Does anybody have experience with Lenovo brand laptops? I found this one, which has most of the specs I'm looking for: Lenovo G50 2 GHz quad-core processor 6GB RAM (expandable to 8GB) 1TB Hard Drive, 5400RPM DVD Drive SD Memory Card slot 3 USB ports over 4 hours battery life I mostly use my laptop for travel... so it needs to be able to keep up with PSE9 and Picasa, and play DVDs. I've also been looking at Asus and HP laptops, but they are more expensive and I might have to sacrifice some of the specs. Any input? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenrou Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Costco's custom pcs and laptops are some kind of brand like that. Can't remember. They are similar inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheri T Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Jeff says Lenovo is a good brand as far as he knows. That's a good endorsement if I ever heard one b/c if there was much of anything at all negative about them, he would have heard it:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LauraYB Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I have a Lenovo with large processor -- excellent for large multimedia files (my hubby works with ad agencies and TV/radio stations in corporate branding--very large files). My laptop is a hand-me-down from him and I love it for my scrapbooking. NEVER had a problem. HTH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValerieT Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Our laptop is a Lenovo, don't know the specs. Matty loves it. Good battery life, only has 4GB RAM but is plenty for what we needed. We've got photoshop CC installed and picasa they both run beautifully. Oh , and it's about 18 months old and we've had no trouble with it, unlike DH's Dell work laptop.

scrapgran Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Our school provided the staff with Lenovo computers. I preferred them over some of the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-M Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 My first laptop was an ASUS and it was a lemon.... kept having blue screen crashes... took it back and they were supposed to have repaired it.... still kept crashing..... in the end the only way the computer shop took it back again was that they had to physically see the crash happen ( my husband and I were both silently praying... crash crash crash ) and it did. This time they did fix it. But because it was always being away getting fixed I bought myself a Toshiba which had more RAM than the Asus. So eventually I sold the Asus to my sister and she is enjoying it as she mostly just uses it for emailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
April Showers Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Thomas and I both got this one (or one very similar) from Dell. We added memory ourselves and switched it to an SSD which makes it really fast. It runs everything I do just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
