very easy to upgrade ram and yes the hdd is only 1 bay.. since it a small laptop so not expect so high but got msata for hybrid

the battery got battery life saver where the battery only charge up to 60% instead of full charge to protect the battery

Only Y580 come with FHD only right? I already place my deposit on Y480 HD

but i would said dun put yourself too hard if the budget tight... the spec for y480 should be good enough to compete with y580...hehe even graphic, screen size and fhd is different but y480 with gt650 did provide the best best price for such high spec in the market. its cool

any y480 owner found a link for bios update version 36?
seem can't find it

Actually I have the budget to buy Y580 but:

1) I don't really need FHD
2) GT650m performance only slightly less than GTX660m
3) I will carry my laptop around. So less weight better.
4) 14" is good enough for me. If you want big screen better buy 27" monitor.
5) I can use the save up money to upgrade the Y480 to SSD.

So that's why I pick Y480, worth for the price ^^

i do not add ssd but still work well to me

No HD overheat issue?

freeDOS mean do not come with window..like empty hdd u need to reinstall/ format the laptop by using window 7 disc.
no...need to install by own otherwise go for window version then should be good for you
