    I have never owned a Lenovo but have read so many good things that I have decided to get one.There so many choices that I am getting confussed on what to choose and need some feedback.
    I dont need this for business ,this will be for home use,surfing,movies,some photo editing and light games.

    I have been looking at the E402 and E420s,other than weight and the screen options what is different? Do they both have a hdmi port and the think light?
    I have also thought about the y460 as they nicer speakers and have the 17 (not sure I need that?)
    I have found some great coupons for all three of these but the e420 ones expire today (between $700/$800 for the 420 and 420s wi5,4 gig 500 7200 hd)
    I found the y460 for $850 w 17 ,8g ram.,500 5400 hd.

    Any thoughts,issues or things you love about these 3 or should I look at one of the other 14in Lenovos?.

    Thankls !

    The E4XX series are business laptops. YXXX series is a consumer laptop. You might be better off with the Y series based on what you mentioned. If battery life is not a problem.
