Does it have little people inside who do all the job instead of you/me?

Hell, if so, I'll take it, with warranty naturally (or anti-syndicate insurance)...

It´s not the first and probably not the last time ThinkPads on Lenovo website are priced wrongly. If we post every such mistake, it will become quite a long thread (unfortunately) I´m sure Lenovo is working on that problem.

EDIT:typo...

True... but this one was so much fun....

I would buy one like this. No one else will have more exclusive ThinkPad than mine

Lenovo seems to value their led celeron models very high
