Not available with BlueRay as far as I can tell. Also 1378 pixels is not enough for me. Would pay more to get those features, Lenovo!
Lenovo Y550P is available with the BluRay drive. Just got my niece a unit few weeks back. Hell of a multimedia powerhouse! =)
i got this laptop and it pretty much kicks ass. running l4d2 re5 and fallou3 on high settings no problem. got mine for 999.00 at newegg..blazing fast and the graphics card is pretty beasty for a laptop. didn't get the blu-ray but i got a ps3 for that.
You definietley strike a bargain with this machine. I was able to stream my slingbox to this laptop and still install software, remove software, download updates and navigate all at the same time with little or no lag. This machine is a beast no matter what negative comments are said about it. the 720p display is 100% better than a VGA and I can especially enjoy watching movies and tv without having to hook up an external amplified speaker system to it. This means less I have to carry with me. There are some who don't like the USB ports on the right front, but there is also one on the front left, it is a combination port for USB and ESATA. This is for the true multitasker, even more so if you enjoy performing a lot of multimedia tasks. Just about everything is instantaneous. My internet fly's too since I have FiOS.
Please give model number spec for blu-ray drive in your y550p.
Thank you.
For a laptop the “subwoofer” isn’t bad – tried Dir en Grey’s subwoofer piece “Sa Bir” – it’s funny to hear a little laptop growl like that — the high end is actually much nicer, though.
