Lenovo 7 Days of Deals, Day 5: 35% Off ThinkPad R-Series (inc. T9600, Win 7 equipped

[购物指南]

Lenovo is celebrating the Windows 7 launch with 7 Days of Deals. If you've been a RedFlagDeals.com reader fro a while, you probably know what kind of format to expect -- each day, there will be a new offer available, and it will be good for 1 day only.

For Day 5 of this Days of Deals event, Lenovo.com Canada has brought back a hot deal! They are once again offering a huge 35% discount off the ThinkPad R-Series when you use coupon code CAPRSERIESDEAL5. Previously, this discount was available once as a RedFlagDeals.com exclusive. The discount is good for 24 hours only, and will end at 11:59PM today (October 26). Here are a couple of sample configurations:

The promo page hasn't been updated yet, but the code works already if you browse to the R-Series manually (use the link above). Here are some sample configurations:

• $759.85 Lenovo Thinkpad R500: Intel Core 2 Duo T9600, Windows 7 Home Premium 64, 15.4" WXGA TFT, Intel GMA X4500 graphics, 2GB DDR3 RAM, 160GB hard drive, DVDRW, ThinkPad 11b/g III Wi-Fi, 6-cell battery
• $733.85 Lenovo ThinkPad R400: Intel Core 2 Duo T9600, Windows 7 Home Premium 64, 14.1" WXGA TFT, Intel GMA X4500 graphics, 2GB DDR3 RAM, 160GB hard drive, DVDRW, ThinkPad b/g/n Wi-Fi, 4-cell battery

The available configurations are a little different from before. Obviously, the systems now come equipped with Windows 7. They also have 2GB RAM by default and DVDRW drives. There are pretty limited processor choices, but 14" and 15" ThinkPads equipped with very fast Core 2 Duo T9600 processors for around $750 definitely have our attention. As we said last time around, these laptops offer a great combination of performance, aggressive pricing, and quality.
