Hi Sifus,
How well does Y500 fare against full head-on gaming laptop like alienware. I mean based on cofiguration lenovo seems to be more powerful, but why does alienware cost more for less config?
*
Y500 was design for Multimedia level Notebook Market, while Alienware was truly design for Gaming, thats different on Material , built quality , vent dissipation design and and so on beside spec configuration laugh.gif

z400 and z500 are pretty hard to add on / upgrade ram rclxub.gif as thats a warranty void sticker on a screw below keyboard, but without move out that screw, you cant remove back cover to access ram slot doh.gif

does that apply to every model or majority of them are like that?

if every single model is like that, then it is  shakehead.gif

now even earning money from upgrading RAM is reduced. shakehead.gif

Z400 will be a better deal but keep in mind that the thinness of the Z400 can trap heat + back cover is quite hard to disassemble, for cleaning and upgrading purposes.

after i had tried few times, its apparently very easy for me, but the warranty void sticker very annoying laugh.gif
