I am surprised Lenovo is still in business.

- Who uses an optical drive daily?  weekly?  Monthly?  Yearly?
- Who needs a big slow power-hungry 1GB drive instead of a flash drive?
- Who needs to store > 1000 hrs music + 1000 pix + a lifetime of docs (128GB)?
- Who wants 4 hours battery life when 10 hours is standard now?
- How many pirated movies do you store on YOUR laptop?

This is really a backwards-thinking design, the machine is misconfigured in several ways.
