These are the specs:

i7 4700MQ 2.4Ghz Quad Core
Intel Graphics 4600
8GB DDR3 1600mhz
1920x1080 IPS screen
250GB Samsung 840 EVO
Retrofitted T450 Trackpad
Fingerprint reader
Backlit keyboard

It is a great deal for its specs, and I look forward to buying it. I'll probably pull the trigger this week if I get the funds.

Can anyone weigh in on it? I'd love some opinions about anything.

Thanks!

One very common complaint on these models is the touchpad implementation since it lacks dedicated buttons for the trackpoint. However, you can swap it out for a T450 touchpad that includes dedicated buttons.

But does everything work when you swap out the touchpad for the T450 model? The Tx40 clickpads are awful, but I saw several threads where people were having all kinds of trouble getting the Tx50 trackpad to work in the Tx40 (I seem to remember problems with some of the buttons not working and maybe other stuff... seemed like lots of monkeying around trying to find just the right driver rev).
