I got this from John8520 on Monday. It's a 1.5GHz Core2Duo, 3GB RAM, 80GB HD, CD-RW. I'll eventually get a bigger HD for it, but for now, it works fine.

Getting this around this time seems like a nice Christmas gift, even though it came a little early.

Wheeee

Was that the laptop you were telling me about a week ago that the post office was giving you a hard time about?

Congrats!

Well, eventually came today. I bought a 250GB HD for it at Best Buy.

I'm waiting for Lenovo to send me a new CD drive; this one is having trouble spinning up for some reason.

I also extended its warranty yesterday by 2 years, so that's nice to have.
