not bad, but the id put more ram in it, and maybe think about a diff hd (faster or just more capacity)



other than that, id say its not too bad.

That's the standard config for a 2884-M2U. I ordered one over two weeks ago from IBM/Lenovo w/the Mastercard promo price of $1359.20 plus tax. The day after I ordered, that model disappeared from the X listings on their website

May I ask where you can get it for $1274?

It is the EPP price from IBM/Lenovo for the unit new from the factory.
