Looks good. Where is that? Is it ending today? (Not important to me -- I don't actually need a new computer. But I'm interested.)
Lenovo website. For an extra $90 the 500G HD becomes a 512GB NVMe drive, and the keyboard becomes backlit. That is the 20L9S14T00 model. Quite the deal (about 50% off regular price where as the one with the HD is about 33% off).
I assume (but don't know) that you could easily add an NVMe SSD to this. Aftermarket SSDs are cheap and seem to be getting cheaper.
I kind of thought that T5n0 models would have n'th generation Intel processors. I have noticed that there are exceptions, unfortunately. The i5-8____ series are usually better than the i5-7___ series. Often twice as many cores.
Yeah seems both 7th and 8th gen CPUs are used. -- Len Sorensen
