Did I screw myself or get a good deal on a 7450edu?

Did I screw myself or get a good deal on a 7450edu?

As it says, I've been looking for an x200 tablet with these specs. I felt it was legit, but I'm getting a feeling it might not be some how. Are EDU generally cheaper?

I guess we'll find out what happens sometime soon...

I did some pricing with the latest LogicBuy coupons and Lenovo deals etc., and that EBay price is actually good for what you are getting. I don't think you will do better.

Ok, cool. I was searching around and got the same feeling. Ok, one more question.

What's the difference between the Enhanced Multitouch WXGA LED Panel with Wide viewing Angle vs the Super bright LED in terms of touch using your fingers? Is it just that the Super bright can do only one finger for touch? If that is it is the one finger touch sensitive enough to not have to use the stylus? Reason I say that is I have an x61 tablet and I can't use my finger that much or if I do I feel like I'm gonna wreck my screen pressing or scratching it since I really can only use my finger nail more than my tip. It's disappointing.

I'll let an x200 tablet user answer your last question. Good luck with it if you get one.

Using it now, I'm pretty happy with it. I'm amazed how cool it runs. I put Rainbow Six Vegas on it and the whole time the temp was like the x61 idling. Right now, I'm typing on it and there's no temp at all it's like it hasn't been turned on yet. Screens a lot brighter and while this IS NOT a multi touch screen it does do touch a lot easier than the x61 does. Good Buy. Selling my x61 soon too.
