Lenovo ThinkPad Helix

[TurboMirage]

So i'm running a t430u right now, its pretty neat. but i really want a tearaway and lenovo is the only company that makes one (besides the surface pro2 which is a tablet with a fancy keyboard... been there/done that)

anything else out there interested in something alike the helix?

doesnt come with an i7 or pro. and i need atleast a 180gb ssd.


thanks for looking though! i think it will be tough for anyone to touch the lenovo.

Lenovo has some hot deals on their outlet sometimes. I almost jumped on a yoga last week with an i7, 128gb, and 8 gb ram for like 500 ish that was a scratch and dent.

I had a demo of the helix.

It sucked.

I'll be happy as long as it's better than the surface. It was also a custom build for my liking.

the battery in the tablet part is either bad, or the connector was loose and got unseated. i'm hoping the latter when i open it up tonight.


on another note, i'm constantly poking at laptop screens that don't have touch capability
