Just wondering if this spec is good enough for photos editing (Photoshop, LightRoom), video editing, movie watching and Internet surfing? No gaming.

Thanks, just wondering if it is upgradeable to 8GB RAM? I might do it later when the warranty expires.
Dell allows customisation up to 6GB which I have no intention to upgrade to 6GB now.
Oh no. I'm supposed to carry my company laptop when I'm back to my hometown, now I'm not sure if I should.
Plus all my photography stuffs, I have to carry a backpack that weighs more than 10KG.

Minimum sometimes also not very helpful and accurate. I can run CS5 on my older laptop no problem.

Just add in some additional info from the website:

Supported NVIDIA graphics cards for GPU acceleration


Does this mean the others no affect at all? 

How to test bro? Mind sharing?
I mean how to see whether the GPUs will help or not? 

Its for 3D ?

Good question, the speakers in the Acer TimelineX 4830Tg and Asus A43Sv are also soft... try not to expect too much from budget-line laptop speakers hehe~
You could always soft the problem by getting external, much better ones 

Not really, the speakers in desktop replacements are better than budgeted speakers haha 
But in general external speakers are better 
I can't wait until the time I could actually buy my own external speakers 

Still love using headphones. Probably explains why I never spend more than RM100 for speakers but have several sets of quality headphones.

Hard to say, need both models to be able to test out.... 

it's because my current toshiba sounds great compared to my friends' and my sisters' laptop.that's why i have kinda higher expectation for laptop speakers.

anyway,thanks for the responds.

Yes and I am also wondering if it's worth the wait for college student

Already available in Dell Vostro and Latitude models 

Depending on what you think its worth it... if based on specs alone, then its rather clear that the Lenovo is better 
But whether a laptop is worth it or not doesn't really rely on merely the specs...

Sorry about the wrong information, just checked Wikipedia...
It seems i5-2410M < i5-2510E < i5-2515E < i5-2520M < i5-2540M
Basically the CPU clocks for the i5-2510E = i5-2515E = i5-2520M, only difference is the i5-2520M having slightly higher GPU clocks 
I wonder what those "E" suffixes behind the codes mean 

@Jyong, so unless you want to buy a laptop without a dedicated GPU, might as well go for the i5-2510E/15E (if they come out) haha
