All in all, the Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E420 shapes up as an attractive general-use laptop if gaming and processor-intensive tasks--or superlong battery life--aren't of major concern. It's good looking, easy to type on, and equipped with a useful array of features and software. None of its minor flaws should be deal-breakers for its intended audience of budget-minded users. quote

At this price, the Edge E420 is targeted more towards SMBs and professionals wanting a laptop with all their business functionality preloaded onto it. If you’re a professional wanting the experience of a ThinkPad and you have a limited budget, then the Edge E420 is a good buy.

Except for the lack of graphic card, you cannot ask more from this laptop. ThinkVantage software which is pre-loaded and rectifies almost all the slight glitches that may occur. Also the screen is TFT and is non-sticky compared to those of apple. Chicklet keyboard is awesome.

The CPU is slightly lacking, but it is value-for-money enough. I boosted the RAM up to 8GB so I can...
