[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's big, it's heavy, and it's perfect for heavy processing. I originally bought this computer for a GIS course and it performs flawlessly. No hesitations and it doesn't get bogged down when using multiple windows and tabs. I was pleasantly surprised by the battery life for a laptop of this size: I've gotten 7+ hours of light use without needing to plug it in. It's generally pretty quiet, although during updates and heavy work the fans are substantially louder. It does weigh quite a lot, and finding a carrying case that it will fit in is not easy. The power brick is big and heavy, but it fully charges the laptop in less than 2 hours.There is no auto brightness setting for the screen, which is slightly disappointing but not a deal breaker. Likewise, the keyboard back light settings are off, low, and high, without a timeout option. Overall I highly recommend this laptop for anyone wanting a computer that can run complex programs while still being portable enough to move from a home office to the workplace.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned other "High Quality" type workstation laptops. This is my first Lenovo and currently will be the only brand I buy. This is what a High Quality Laptop feels like. Very Happy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received my Think Pad 17 as a gift so I had no idea what to think the speed is so much faster than my old computer. The Think Pad has more color graphics which makes it more vivid and easier to see. My vision is limited so it is good that I can hear my computer and the audio is very clear.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent machine. My only issue is that the front edge of the laptop is sharp and scratches my forearms when I type. This wasn't the case with the previous ThinkPads I owned.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great computer, comparable power to a desktop but so much more portable! Keyboard is very responsive and doesn't get hot on my lap
